Just the weather or something else?
Started the car this morning and let it run.
Steam coming out of the pipes as normal with cool weather.
But I noticed afterwards that there was a narrow stream of
steam afterwards almost like a cigarette line coming out of one tailpipe
for almost 5 min.
I put my finger in the tailpipe and could feel moisture.
Also noticed almost a stain of moisture at the bottom of the
inside of the tailpipe. Put my finger on it and it felt just like
water. It was not brown or black or anything.
The car stays in the garage so it kinda seemed weird to me.
It has been getting pretty cold here at night though.
Im guessing 40's to 30's.
I have also noticed when the engine is cold I get the hunting idle more
until the engine warms up.
Car is running fine it seems though once warmed.
Thoughts?

Blacksmoke, dude, your gonna worry yourself into high blood pressure. Your car is fine. I know you had some serious issues after installing all those mods but you need to relax and just enjoy your car. I am saying this will all sincerity. Just enjoy your car, drive it, peel out, get laid in it.......enjoy it.

I think that hunting idle I have been having is making me look for things
that are wrong.
I talked to someone today and he thinks it is the light weight flywheel
that is causing it. It only showed up after the new clutch and flywheel were installed.
His opinion was that the flywheel was showing a different load on the engine
and the computer is unable to compensate for it.
So I guess I will need a re tune.
Thing is I don't want my car on the dyno yet because the clutch is not broken in yet.
I also don't want it romped on either if it is hooked up to a laptop for data logging
when the clutch is not broken in yet.
