I have gas misting from my exhaust. Anyone know what could cause this? I'm getting a valve adjustment done and i hope that'll take care of it, but any other suggestions?

Are you sure it's not water vapor?

 

[vwgti303]

I suppose it could be, what would that mean?

 

[olegbi_q2]

Depends.

Does it do it all the time / while warming up / on gassing it?
Is it pure white or brownish in color?

Quit putting beans in the carbs!!!

Well i only notice it on warm up when i can stand back and observe it. And it smokes white a little bit, but what i notice the most is that there's condensation around the outlets of my pipes, mainly the right one. Not sure if that helps or not.

That's normal. It's water, not gas. The water is coming from the moisture in the air. The reason it's mainly around the right one is because that pipe is less restricted than the left one due to the poor stock midpipe design.

Okay, that's good to know. One would think I'd know the difference between water and gas....then what the hell have I been putting in my tank?

 

[r3t1awr3yd]

He's not saying water in your tank (which would cause a hydrolock).

He's talking about condensation at the pipe's exit.

I understand. I was trying to make a joke...it wasn't funny. Thanks for the help though guys.
