gas cap seal migt have a TINY crack in it. mine did and the pressure loss in the tank caused a CEL. I have also heard of and known of a couple of people that had mechanically over revved engines that they had bent valves. A leakdown test revealed the issues as well as an attempt to adjust the valves finding cracked spring retainers

Before you go and pull the head, pull your injectors and have them checked or just buy a low mileage set and throw them in. Replacing the injectors is a pretty quick and easy job. That's what mine turned out to be and there is a whole thread about it here somewhere.

I had misfires on cylinders 1,2 & 3.
Crapped myself.
Turned out the plugs were working loose. Carbon build up on coil packs pointed the way. Was a huge relief.
Hope yours turns out to be so simple and cheap.
