is blowing water droplets from tailpipe. runs rough at idle or slow speeds. check engine lite is on. codes say 1 and 2 cylinder misfiring. changed plugs. 1 had small amount of oil on it. i drove it over 100 miles on interstate when it started and it seemed ok until i got off and slowed. i let it run in park. had to refill radiator after maybe an hour. it started to run hot but didn't get into "H" zone on gauge. last month i had thermostat and water pump replaced. this may be unrelated but heater blows cold air even before i had thermostat replaced.
