Tons of soot in the tailpipe
I bought a new stock muffler about 3 months ago, and already its caked with black deposits (carbon?). What would cause this?

Exhaust causes it. It's normal, I wouldn't worry about it. The only way to prevent it is to not drive the car...

That is normal. Sometimes it begins to rust.
What i did was take Black engine paint and spray it inside the tip. This keeps it from rusting.
