GA's probably correct. Take off the center stack and look for a disconnected link to the blender door. OTOH, if you've neglected to mention significant coolant temp fluctuations or need to chronically add coolant then indeed you'll need a proper $1.6k HG job. NO additive can quench either an internal high pressure "percolation" nor an atmospheric (more common) leak off the #4 cyl corner. Good luck. Ern TSG/B
