I moved this from the post you put it in....

Does this seem to happen after sitting for a long period of time (say more than 3 hours). Or does it happen everytime you start the car?

Are you having to add coolant over time?

If the car has sat for a period of time then it could be the gas.

With fresh gas and the cleaner, if the issue doesn't come back...call it good.

If it does come back, let us know.
