Leaking exhaust?
Im sure this isnt a normal thign to have what i assume is gas leaking from my exhaust noticed it today while at gas station. I already replaced pcv valve 02 sensor new spark plugs and wires. I would think first thing wrong air/fuel ratio but what else would cause that. It may also lead to my bad mileage i still get about 15 mpg with all the tune ups i have done. Any advice is appreciated

oh its water? No matter how i drive the mileage is pretty bad i dont understand why. That is a mix of highway and city though. I drive on the highway to work everyday but drive jsut as much in city.

well i obviously tried to drive liek a granny but it didnt seem ot help at all so ill drive normal to heavy sometimes. WHat should my fuel pressure be at idle and at like 2000 rpm because i wanna test it. im also goign to check the resistance on my coils. My car still feels like it has lost power.

Luxury... When you stomp on it does the car seem to be a little sluggish and you can hear back pressure? Poor fuel mileage like you are describin...higher temps..like you've had.
How is that catalytic converter? Does it rattle or make any noises?
