Water sprays from muffler

[cheboing]

I have an 84 2m4 with 120,00 km's ... It will start , idle rather fast and try to stall when you give it more fuel , then a steady spray of water comes out of the side of the muffler . The rad is filled with anti freeze (green) , the fluid from the muffler is not green ... It has been parked for almost 2 years now and the clutch pedal will not go to the floor which is the next question ... is it pooched now ? Any help would be great ... Thanks .

The only source of "straight" water, if anti-freeze is in the cooling system, would be condensation. It's possible, if it really did sit for such a long time, you need to run it until it reaches full operating temp for about 30 minutes. That should "boil" all the water out of it.

Can't say about the clutch, dude...

Mine did the same thing just rainwater collected and srayed out the weephole in the muffler and the tailpipes

just got my car running after it sat for quite a while. if it hadnt been started or anything...it will shoot the water out of the tail pipes. just start it up and let it run for a while until the engine/exhaust reach operating temp as (MrPbody) mentioned. it should be fine. check to see if your exhaust has rotted at all from the rain water sitting in there for so long.-Bugs
