Hey, Well as some of you know I just got a new exhaust system a few days ago, and so far I am absolutely loving it!!! But today I noticed something that i'm not sure if it's normal or not. I was sitting in my driveway and I started the engine (cold start, hadn't been started since last night) and I decided to rev the engine a bit to hear it
For some reason I had the door opened, and was looking back towards the tail pipe, when all of the sudden I see a little puff of dark smoke come out, so I rev it a couple more times, and it happens again, after 2 or 3 revs another little puff of dark smoke comes out, and when that happened the truck kind of hiccuped and then was normal again. I also noticed some condensation building up in the exhaust pipe, and after I reved it bit some water would come out, not much but just a few drops.
I know it's normal for a new muffler to smell and smoke a bit while it's burning off the laquer or whatever it is. And after the day I got it, I didn't smell the smell anymore, but it also never smoked when it was burning it off. So are the little dark puffs of smoke just left over laquer burning off (It only shoots out the little puffs when i've been reving it for a few minutes, and it's warmed up). And then i'm worried about the condensation that's building up. I've only noticed it after a cold start, and not after i've started it up after it's warmed up.
I really hope that this is all normal. It's just kind of freaking me out, because I never had any condensation building up with my old exhaust, and I never had any little puffs of smoke while reving it.
Anyone have any ideas? Because I am completely stumped on this
