I bet you do. My '92 did the same thing when I seafoamed it. Oddly, I have only seen 1* of KR one time, and all my scans were in the 90*+ temps with high humidity. Otherwise that was the only KR I ever saw. You should pull the EMs off and check them out.

I bet you'll find leaks on the end cylinders between the flange and head. Have some EM gaskets handy.
