Deceptively tricky, I needed 2 steps:
1) (1=4) r4c7 - (4=6) r1c7 - (6=15) r13c8 => -1 r2c7, r6c8, giving the following:
Discontinuous loop: (4=1) r2c5 - (1=9) r2c6 - r1c6 = (9-2) r1c9 = (2-4) r1c4 = r2c5 => -1r2c5; stte

Lots of interesting steps but none that I found was a single step solution.
(4=1)r2c5-(1=9)r2c6-r2c9=(9-2)r1c9=2r1c2 => r1c2<>4
Which results in the following code
8r2c7=8r2c9-(8=6)r8c9-r8c7=r1c7-(6=51)r13c8 => r2c7<>1

How about a weird discontinuous loop with memory?

Same elimination as leren with some differences.
8r8c9=(8-9)r2c9=r2c6-(956=4)r1c687-(41=8)r42c7=>r8c7<>8
