It means you threw a code. You need a scanner to find out what's up.

Normally "blinking" means a misfire.

Did you change your fuel jets? I remember someone saying that you might need to richen your 100shot due to that lack of torque gained. Running lean on the giggle gas will cause all kinds of stuff, perhaps a misfire or knock. Just something to look into.
