Title: Exhaust is leaving crap on my bumper and paint
Post by: rfritz on September 24, 2006, 12:16:46 PM

My exhaust is leaving residue on my bumper. It is oily, but the car does not smoke, or not enough for me to see while I am driving. What could cause this? I recently Seafoamed the engine and intake. Thanks in advance.

Do you have DTM style tips that point up?

You might have a bad cat or some fuel mixture problem.
