Anyone know anything about what a flashing emission light means for a car? Mine flashed a few times on Fri when I first started the car. This evening it came on when I left work and stayed on the entire drive to my doctor. It stayed on for at least half hour. When I left the doc, the light didn't come on again. Whenever the light is on, the car doesn't accelerate properly and is rather jerky and I can't go above 35 mph.
When I mentioned it to the mechanic at a garage, he said it means that something is failing in the motor. Is that what an emission light indicates? If yes, I need to take the car in tomorrow morning.
