the condensate is nothing to worry about its normal. as for the statement about being in a garage its happened in the past and it can happen again. take the truck to the people that installed the exhaust and have them check it out sounds like possibly bad workmanship. -- budd cochran in tribute to the united states of america and the state of israel two bastions of strength in a world filled with strife and terrorism. ------ well its not in the garage its outside and the fumes come out of the muffler to the front of the vehicle and they get into the cab. yes its water condensate coming from the pipe. please advise. thanks on mon 17 nov 2003 133328 gmt budd cochran mr-d150spam@citlink.net wrote back it out of the garage to warm it up and it is water condensate coming from the pipe. .

mine did too but the stuff that caused the odor burned off in the first 8k miles or so. now i have no odor at idle cold or warm at all. oh also have 29k miles on the 03 ho now. fmb only one b in fmb how do you park into the wind at an intersection waiting for the light or stop sign i know others having problems with exhaust fumes coming into the cab of 03s and 04s even when running at 40mph. these are brand new trucks... there must be a flaw in the new cummins or body style somewhere .

it isnt so bad red if you dont let the leftists get to you. i have just about any kind of area to go visit right here in my own backyard. within 1/2 a days ride i can be up at 7000 feet in the sierras or at the beach big cities desert farmland rice paddies we produce more than japan. we fear no tornadoes damn few no hurricanes beautiful sunsets on our ocean and we build to survive earthquakes. oh and the #6 largest economy in the whole world. sure some of the tree huggers get out of hand but if it wernt for them we might still have stacks spewing out loads of smoke all day long. oh yeah and now we fear no governor that f*%$s up our state. come on by have a beer. fmb the worst part of the trip was pulling onto our own street at home. if i lived in ca it would be crossing the state line coming home!!!! g ill start watching reality tv shows when i can vote people off the planet. .
