For some reason oil comes out of the exhaust :s. Alot of it. Sits in the garage. I turn it on and move it out, next thing I kno whatever was behind the zook is painted black with oil, not too popular with the parents, anyone know how to fix this? |

You mean soot, from condensation whilst your car was idling? |

Looks like oil, could be soot? But seems pretty oily to me |

black splatter? did you smell it/ feel its viscosity? Mine does this, mine is what chop said, soot from the exhaust dissolved in water (condensation) being blown out of the exhaust when cold. |

hahaha i did that to my parents carport once... washed off with water. but yeah its condensation pulling the soot out of the exhaust... nothing to worry about - the easiest solution is to put a 'splash back' on the garage wall - a sheet of plastic/steel/wood - anything you can occasionally hose off to keep it somewhat clean. |

It should be running rich first thing in the morning when you start it in the garagge, assuming the choke is operating correctly. |

Yea true, but to the extent of blowing soot around ? |

My redzook used to squirt other people's cars when started - Was funny to pull out of a parking space and see a big black mark on someone's car. (it washes off) |

why not buy a clamp on droopy exhaust tip? point the soot/water/fumes downwards... then at least all you're dirtying is the floor. Also - mine doesnt blow out condensation on startup for the first 30 secs or so, maybe you can use that time to get out of the carport? =) |

not so sure if you are able to do this with cars but im assuming it would be the same principle.. we used to own a load of two stroke motorbikes and the exhausts would always fill with soot, we got told of a way to clean them, cant remember exactly. but im pretty sure the fella who did it for us just heated them up a lot and then tapped all the soot out of the exhaust until relatively clean.. might be worth a try? |
