OK since the engine light came on and was flashing that is telling you its a misfire and the cause is usually a bad coil .I would change the plugs and find which cylinder was misfiring as a code will still be stored like p0301 . Once this is fixed it will take care of the issue. If you need more help please use the reply tab to continue our conversation. If no further assistance is needed, please consider rating me as 5 STAR!! It is much appreciated. You can rate at any time and we can continue to work on your question as this will not close out your question. Stay Safe !!! Bonuses greatly appreciated.

So far all I have done was pour fuel injector cleaner into the tank on two occasions Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? I had a misfire that caused the check engine light to blink. It turned off after blinking. This made me buy the injector cleaner. It has not happened again since that one time.
