A flashing check engine light is warning you that the engine is misfiring and damaging the catalytic converter! Most likely a tune up will fix that. The oil gauge fluctuating at idle probably means you're low on oil, dangerously low! So check your oil level right away!! Hope that helps! Jim
The check engine light comes on when you need to check the engine. It’s self explanatory well to most people anyway.
My Tahoe light starts blinking when I go over 30mph; my oil gauge fluctuates when idling

While I'm driving on the freeway my engine will shut off like it's not getting enough gas, after about 10 seconds the engine kicks in and I'm driving back to normal speed again
