Cylinder not firing??

[roland3337]

I have a 2002 Boxster, without any mods, with 53k on the odometer. I bought it about a month and a half ago. During that time, and before today, it ran and drove just fine.

When I went to move it today, the check-engine light started blinking, then glowed steady. And jnudging from the way it was running, it was clear to me that one of the cylinders was not firing.

Anyone else have this problem before? Any ideas what it might be?

Thanx...
