water dripping from muffler flange

started truck in garage and was sweeping wife's side while mine was running and noticed a puddle of water and dripping from the forward flange connecting,, i could not really feel any exhaust coming out, just water dripping out..

 

Condensation. Bet there is a weep hole right above where you see water dripping. Rear side of muffler, top side of flange.

 

1 gallon of gas = 1 gallon of water
Just saying

 

thanks,guess it not a tight seal where the 2 flanges meet.. too let water out

 

2 C8H18 + 25 O2 → 16 CO2 + 18 H2O

It's a natural occurrence of the combustion process...

 

i know this, i always thought the exhaust system connections were sealed with gaskets, i guess not,, i know water comes out the tailpipe,,

 

This guy payed attention in chemistry

 

Weep hole weep hole weep hole... not leaking from the flange or air would be leaking and that would be a no go for safety inspection.

 

smitty is that you?

 

sounds like it's time for new muffler bearings.

 

definitely a johnson bar issue. check the joyball bearing case for flux paste if you see any coming from outermost inner bearing race then you will need to take a number 11 fiscal socket and insert it into the upper under carriage of the joyball bearing that will induce the flux to the outmost race and allow it to flow into your muffler flange along the venous bed rail. or at least that's what worked for me. pictures to follow

 

And..... duct tape if all else fails... should hold.

 

How about some

 

Add the flex tape and your covered <-- see what I did there?

^This guy didn't pay attention in english class.

 

I thought I said that?

 

STOP HIDING IT! WE ALL KNOW THE THIRD GEN IS A CHEMTRAIL GENERATOR. THIS IS THE SAME SHIT THE GOVERNMENT IS SPEWING INTO THE ATMOSPHERE EVERY TIME A PLANE FLIES OVER MY HOUSE

GET OFF MY LAWN

hello

 

@Z50king not sure the government would risk putting such a chemical in a truck that has the potential to get stuck in park, diff blow up, have no trans fluid, and heaven for bid have a tad bit of vibration! I'm sure we'd put it in something more reliable like a ridgeline
