Default exhaust leak.

quick question. would nj inspection fail me for leaking water out my muffler?
cause when i checked my exhaust its leaking out of the muffler not the piping.
and im not really tryna spend money for a stock exhaust.
cause ill prolly end up buying a new one after i pass it, if it pass.

does it only leak water when you start it after it has been sitting for a while, as in overnight? if so, then its normal.

The natural cycle of combustion in you car (assuming it's running good) releases H20 and Co2 out of your exhaust. It's completely normal ...unless there's a lot of water.

the only reason i got a rejected sticker
is for the nox emissions.

i heard seafoam, 93 octane, fuel injector cleaner, and new spark plugs would pass me. not sure about that yet.
