one morining before going to school i was letting my ef warm up before i took off they for some reason i looked under the car and i had a exhaust leak due to the fact that i didnt tighten the bolts good but there was a liquid coming out of the exhaust leak?

Maybe condensation inside the engine from it being cold outside?

Does it stop after the car is fully heated up?

You've never seen water or steam coming out of other cars exhausts on cold mornings? It's normal.

i had a blown headgasket about a month ago, and once i fixed everything, it took about 100 miles to get all the LEFT OVER water/condensation out of the exhaust system.

that **** builds up in your cat and muffler, resonator if you have one. so it takes time, just drive it on the freeway for like half an hour and it SHOULD get better.

but if you feel any sort of bogging or sputtering, stop driving it.
