Why do I have so much steam coming from exhaust? Seems like every time I start it I get lots of water and steam from exhaust. Is this just a function of cold damp weather?

Is this just a function of cold damp weather? Are you driving a 914 with an air cooled engine in it? IF so, your engine is doing what it is supposed to do. makes water. It will be steaming when you first start it. After the engine warms up the steam is boiling off before you can see it coming out of the tail pipe. That's my take on it. |
