hey all noticed there is a liquid coming out of the exhaust while its running someone told me it is running rich could this be the problem .
the car has Pacemaker 4480's, a magnaflow highflow cat, and a 2.5"mandrel bent cat back sytem with one straight through muffler.
also it has 150,000 k's on clock and is always run on shell 95

do you know if it still does it after a long drive?
im thinking it might just be water as a byproduct of the cat..
mixing all the hydro carbons and carbon dioxide and stuff...(heh im doing 1st year apprentice tech..) somewhere in there water is a byproduct if i remember right.

or maybe its just fuel? catch a bit and put a lighter to it :P :lol:

That clip sounds alright threw a PC sub!

It's condensation (I hope). Notice some mornings you can see even new'er cars smoking at the lights from the exhaust? 90% of em are 'steaming' out the water condensation.

I'd also say head gasket.

Just a little off topic. Remember that post about the Argentinian Falcon that retained the same basic shell from the XP through to the 90's.
Interesting commercial, see link below.
