Hello all,
I just put my exhaust back together with some anti-seize on the y-pipe studs. While warming the truck up I notice a little smoke curling up from underneath and crawled under to take a look. It seemed like smoke was coming off the studs holding the y-pipe to the catback where I had added anti-seize.
I had put a lot of torque on the nuts when I put the exhaust back together and used a new gasket. Does anti-seize smoke for a little while after its first applied? Or do I have an exhaust leak?
Didn't smell like exhaust...
