   Yes, it is a 6-cylinder.  The mechanic that installed the motor said the same   
   thing.  The only odd thing is my original motor didn't do that.     
      
   I would rather have a few seconds of tapping vs. antifreeze leaking all down   
   the block. :)     
      
   My original motor had corrosion on both the head and lower intake manifold. It   
   was allowing antifreeze to leak around the gasket.  They have no idea how that   
   could have happened to the aluminum head.     
      
   I blame the Dexcool - as they caused loads of problems with gaskets when it   
   first hit the market.  I have been running yellow antifreeze for awhile now.
