I had the same prob. Was the motor out of the car and the down pipe left in? Cause i took my motor out and when we put it back in and my bro started the car it did the same thing.....for like 20mins. Try and run the car and rev it now and then u should be alright!\

When you are driving, does it feel like there is some power loss?

if its yellow orangy water its mostly likely been sittin in the pipe for a while because if the engine was going bad most likely u'll be smoking white smoke.
