most likely an o2 sensor, or you had a slight missfire

Mine does that about once a month due to a dirty o2 sensor

I'd say O2 sensor as well. mine's been doing that for a while.
also, if you have an auto parts store like advance auto or auto zone nearby, they do free code checks on the spot. --------------------  *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

I had that happen to me where the light would go on and off and that was the code I got from it. Although, the new engine should take care of that! |
