    I just installed AFE- power 49-46021b cat back. Drove it for about 100 miles and notice yellowish fluid looks like the oil from inside the tail pipes leaking through the clamps. I tighten the clamps and bolts after driving. Is this what to expect when breaking in new cat back exhaust? Thanks!

    Probably a mixture of the condensation and coating that’s inside the pipe. I would think it should burn away. You may still see water drip out of those spots, just as you would with the factory exhaust at the tail pipe end. It’s just coming out at the easiest location I bet.
