So i went to start my accord(95) today, and when i got in, it was in park (obviously) i turned it on like normal, and i revved my enginge a little to warm it up, i pulled out of my garage and paked it in the driveway because i forgot my backpack in my living room so i had to run back in, and when i came out, i noticed my exause had spit out what looks like a dirty waterish liquid, and it smelled kinda funny, so im wondering.. is that bad?

 

my best guess is dirty water

 

Alright good i was hoping it wasnt something bad.

it isnt "leaking"...condensation forms inside the pipes after the car is shut off. it is more noticble when its cold, and if the car is driven often, but for just short periods of time

 

it's pretty normal, unless it's blue or brown tint on the "liquid"

rev'ing the engine to warm up the car is not what you want to do.

 

Here's a quick and simple way to check if your car has a problem oriented with exhaust.
After you drive the car for a little bit to clear out any condensation that may have formed from the cold weather. Take your finger and just run it along the inside of the exhaust exit pipe(inch or 2 inside). If it's dry then you're all good, if it's a little moist then you're still ok, your car is just showing signs of normal wear and tear. If it's wet or even oily then you got a problem.

Afterwards, drive yourself to the nearest hospital to be treated for burns.

Never in you life rev a cold engine again. If you let it sit for 30 sec. the oil will warm itself up enough.

 

It had a grayish tint and smelled like exaust. I drove it today and no problems.

 

yeah dont be worried about it, have you heard or condensation?

 

I was just wondering, because its never dont it before.

 

lol i know right... thats just crazy..
