Hey guys,

New to the forum and I just bought a 94 q45a with 90k miles. Has some issues I am trying to figure out.

1. Rough idle/ miss which I think is two injectors but I need to confirm with a volt meter

2. No smoke at idle but the radiator cap is pressurized after starting and I am thinking its the headgasket. No pressure in the coolant reservoir though. I started it, shut it off and it will push out some coolant when I crack the radiator cap.

Anything else I should be looking for when it runs rough like that?

also there is no water in the oil. No coolant leaks whatsoever. Just runs rough, which with the bad injectors makes it hard to diagnose.

I looked through the site. Nothing that really pointed out whether or not the pressure I was getting is a definite sign of a failure. It may not be. Ill have to drive it to see what other symptoms it has if any
