4 flashes is a knock fault. The cable to the knock sensor may be bad or there is some other situation (like bad gas, way advanced timing, vacuum leak from one of the bushings, etc.) that's causing knock.
What do you have for spark plug wires? If you don't have Bougicords or Magnecores, the knock sensor wire will pick up radio interference from the wires and interpret it as knock, giving you the flashing CE light.
