The FIRST step is to scan your engine computer to retrieve fault codes and see why the computer has turned the check engine light on. Without the fault codes, anybody could GUESS what is wrong with your car for weeks and not get it right!

Hie. My 2001 toyota corolla flashes the engine check light if i go above 4000rpm. wen i restart the car the check light clears. this started after i refuelled two days ago

A flashing check engine light usually means an engine misfire. It's possible that you got a bad batch of gas, was it a discount gas station? I would avoid driving the car past 4000 RPM until you can get some good gas in your tank so that you do not risk damaging your catalytic converter.

Sounds like an intake manifold leak. Once the manifold gets hot the gasket leaks. I would check that first and the head gasket second. Are you getting any smoke, hesitation at all?
