C # HttpClient FormUrlEncodedContent Encoding (VS 2012)

I am using HttpClient. I submit with the parameters of the web form. One of the values ​​(not the name) is the foreign Swedish character ö, # 246; Ö ASCII: Latin small letter O Umlaut

In manual mode, IE, Firefox and Chrome convert this character to S% F6k, and everything works fine. However, VS 2012 C # version will convert it (via FormUrlEncodedContent (dict)) to% C3% B6

Is there a way to tell VS 2012 to convert it to a friendly S% F6k (and still use HttpClient)?

I have added most of the code that may help others (cookies, proxies, etc.)

// Create Handler
var handler = new HttpClientHandler();

// Cookies
var cc = new CookieContainer();
handler.CookieContainer = cc;

// Proxy - for fiddler
WebProxy proxy = new WebProxy();
proxy.Address = new Uri("http://localhost:8888");
handler.Proxy = proxy;

// Create the client
var client = new HttpClient(handler);

var request4 = new HttpRequestMessage();

client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept", "text/html, application/xhtml+xml, */*");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept-Encoding", "gzip, deflate");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.8,sv-SE;q=0.5,sv;q=0.3");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; Trident/6.0)");

// Form Data
var dict4 = new Dictionary<string, string>
{
    { "page", "kantlista" },
    { "kod", "A0004n" },
    { "termin", "H12" },
    { "anmkod", "17113" },
    { "urval", "ant" },
    { "listVal", "namn" },
    { "method", "Sök" } // S%F6k
}; // dict

request4.Content = new FormUrlEncodedContent(dict4);

var value4 = new FormUrlEncodedContent(dict4);
string uri4 = "https://www.ltu.se/ideal/ListaKursant.do";
var response4 = await client.PostAsync(uri4, value4);
response4.Headers.Add("Cache-Control", "no-cache")
response4.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
string responseBody4 = await response4.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

Many thanks! Todd Booth
