Everyone's heard the term "Italian tune up" right? I thought it only applied to cars made to go fast but.... After a bit more studying of my car and putting a piece of ply under the exhaust to catch the liquid that was dripping out I thought it looked like just water. A quick google later and the whole internet seemed to agree that it was just water and soot so I just took her for a good run to warm up and then gave her "heaps" (Morris 8 heaps not Nissan Silvio heaps). Pulled her in the drive and she's running clean as a whistle!!!!! Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
