Default Help. Could this be bad?

I got alot of water coming from the exhaust that just leaks out and it comes out black from the exhaust. But i dont know if its just condensation. it does it everytime i start the car. i dont drive it at all still a project car. i start it maybe 2-3 times a week. could there be water in the cylinders?

Ever seen a car with out water coming out the exhaust? those are the ones that got problems (usually a hole in the ehxuast closer to the engine so you can't see the water coming out)

i bi-product of combustion is water so i wouldnt worry about that however the black smoke is because your are running rich although it probly wont help i would retard your distributor a little bit or if you have an adjustable cam gear then retard that other than that check your o2 sensors
