Default Help with obd0 ecu code

Hey guys, so once in awhile when I'm driving (usually on the freeway) my check engine light will come on and the engine will die, but I can start it back up no problem and there seems to be no issues with the car other than that. When I lift up the carpet to look at the ecu led I'm getting 1 long blink followed by 16 short blinks, then 20 short blinks, then 16 short blinks. To my understanding you should only get 9 short blinks maximum because 1 long blink = 10, anyone have an idea what the deal with the ecu code might be?

Here's a video of the blinking sequence

if the 16 and 20 repeat over and over I would think it is code 16 and 20, and time to get out the service manual and run the troubleshooting steps in there...or hire a mechanic to do that for you.

the ECU for the OBD0 D-series engines does not have long and short blinks - only short
