To go and reiterate my above pronunciations approximately, without X-SAMPA, I would say that I pronounce "question" as either "kwesh-chin" or "kwesh-shin". (I hadn't read the original question when posting before.)

That's assuming that Americans use any one pronunciation, which is not the case. For instance, me, Lazar, and Josh Lalonde are all Americans, and yet we ourselves do not have the same pronunciations of "question" overall.

>>Josh Lalonde is a Canadian, just for the record.<<
I should have said "North Americans", but forgot; my apologies.

North American English dialects tend to use [E] in the word "question" overall and vary primarily on whether they have [stS], [StS], or [S:] and [In] or [@n].
