Well, we finally got my slip-fit primary leak fixed but now i noticed the y-pipe has 2 pin holes in it leaking black fluid My dad thinks this is there for a reason and the fluid is just exhaust gas condensating but its making puddles under my car. Is this normal with longtubes? is there any reason y there should be fluid in my exhaust? It doesnt smell or look like coolant so i dont think its a blown head gasket, and there is no performance loss. Pleese help guys...

 

When you burn gasoline with, it becomes carbon dioxide and water. Until your exhaust warms up, the water condenses on the cold exhaust system. It mixes with carbon deposits and drips a black liquid out any holes. But you shouldn't have any holes in your Y-pipe.

Dripping water - normal. Holes in Y-pipe - bad.....

 

that was my brothers car, he posted it under my name. But he has a 97 Z28. I will relay the info back to him.
