I recently got a reading of my #6 cylinder misfired is it possible that would be causing a tremble while the engine is idle? Would the check engine light blink because of this?

Yes to both of your questions. A misfire will cause the engine to stumble, sturr=tter and shake. It will also cause the check engine light to come on and it can cause it to flash. When the light is flashing, it is damaging the converter.

Thanks, I had the plugs and everything replaced and its been driving and idling smooth. But in the process of checking the cylinders I found the other cylinders to have a psi of around 155 but that misfiring cylinder was at 90 psi?
