First thing to do is have the diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) read from the computer. They will provide the first 'lead' in your investigation.

From there you'll be able to focus on which part of the engine to test, repair, clean, and maybe replace.

I have a 2001 f150 with a 5.4L engine light started blinking on and off then the truck started to sputter and run bad can you help me?

If your check engine light blinks with the engine running it means that a misfire has been detected . Your F150 needs to be scanned for trouble codes in order to diagnose which cylinder or cylinders are misfiring and then repaired
