So , On a Stock Y7 , I have LIQUID oil coming out of my exhaust.... any idea what can cause that ? a broken ring ? Head gasket blown ?

ty in advance !

 

probably new valve seals

 

has the car sat for a little while? it could just be all the carbon burning out of exhaust. does the car smoke while driving, under load , during vtec?? if so do a compreion check but more than likely its your valve seals.

 

I seriously doubt valve seals can be bad enough to the point of oil pouring out the exhaust, unless there were NO valve seals!

If it is truly oil then it is smoking heavily which would indicate a cracked ring(s) and/or cracked piston.

When you have bad valve seals usually the only time you'll see oil smoke is on startup. When its smoking under acceleration and when letting off it is Rings.

 

define "pouring out the exhaust" that why i said to do a comp. test! then you will be able to test for bad rings/cranked pistons? and yes if your valve seals are leeking your car will smoke always! under load during vetc crossover. when you let off the the throttle the rings expand. when your motor is under vac. and had bad rings it would not smoke as bad as it does when accerlating

ty in advance ! </TD></TR></TABLE> It is normal to see water dripping from your tailpipe sometimes. Water is a byproduct of the exhaust gasses after they pass through the converter. Are you sure that its oil and not water? It may be discolored from carbon. I have been a mechanic for over 10 yrs, I have never seen oil drip from the exhaust.

 

make sure its not water like mentioned. Water = good
