What Is This? | Joined: Mar 2014 Posts: 161 member | OP member Joined: Mar 2014 Posts: 161 | Just noticed this liquid coming out of my tailpipe. It *looks* like water with blotchy bits of oil. However, it does not smell like oil. No real smell at all that we could notice. Any ideas? (BTW, this van was sitting dormant for 22 months and I just got it up and running last week. Have put around 50 miles on it since.)

H2O is a byproduct of clean hydrcarbon combustion, so it is likely a combination of condensation and a clean burning engine. Almost all of my family's vehicles spit a little water until the exhaust system gets hot enough to evaporate it.
Windows- they're what make a van worth owning! | | | Re: What Is This? | Joined: Mar 2014 Posts: 161 member | OP member Joined: Mar 2014 Posts: 161 | All of the above was completed sir. Thank you for your response! | | |
