I watched my '31 drizzle water from the pipes after first start then a few drops every other time I've started it since. This is normal. Even your DD will do some condensation drips.Dave W

Moisture is a natural product of combustion, and it condenses in the cold pipes on every cold start. It will be more visible in cooler weather, and once up to temp, the exhaust pipes and muffler evaporate the condensation, drying everything out. You will see more condensation if you are not running a cat converter - the converter gets very hot pretty quick.Last edited by rspears; 07-11-2010 at 09:22 AM. Reason: clarification

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
