I think the grammar got a little garbled there, so I'm not sure quite what you are claiming.
One important thing to remember; 1-4 interactions are treated as bonded interactions right now FOR COUPLE intramol (not for lambda dependence of the potential energy function), so whether couple-intramol is set to yes or no does not affect these interactions at all. It only affects the nonbondeds with distances greater than 1-5. At least to me, this is nonintuitive (and we're coming up with a better scheme for 5.0), but might that explain what you are getting?
