check engine light flashing Sign In

I own 1996 Buick Riviera and my check engine light started flashing.It causes a slight loss in acceleration sometimes.Could this be bad gas,a stuck thermostat,a clogged fuel filter,or spark plugs and wires.I take a chance driving it daily,should I stop.Help me.

Yes, that's what the big flashing red light means,..... stop driving. You have a sever misfire. Plugs and wires are a good place to start.
