I thought of plastic, but that has too many letters and anyway only reminds me of MKDons

 

[oldposhpete]

Perhaps a cricket pitch the ground in Perth, Australia is called the WACA (and fits in with your earlier hint of one letter of 'ewer' being correct)

 

[Ron]

Think of other meanings of PITCH

 

[oldposhpete]

Perhaps I ought to chuck-up or Hurl

 

[Ron]

Bugger I thought that was it. Pitch as in music pitch. Pitcher as in tuner = tuning fork. (which can also be used as a pitch fork)

 

[Ron]

Tune

 

[Resurgam]

Tune

You might be very close there Pete, if you can explain a little bit more

Other than tune-up, render harmonious or mellifluous, none of which are 4 letters, then I am stumped.
