I did an induction cleaning on my 2000 Disco II (92,000 miles) and noticed that some of the liquid was leaking out of the passenger side (NAS version) connection between the exhaust pipe and exhaust manifold. I am guessing that this is not normal, and am hoping that by tightening the bolts that will fix the problem. Anyone have any input on this?

Also, what is the recommended time frame between doing an induction cleaning and changing the oil?

Thanks,

 

I do the cleaning right before I change my oil becauseit probably dirties the oil a bit. Was the engine cold when you started doing it? It was probably just condensation dripping out if so. Combustion produces a lot of water. You may have a bad exhaust gasket.

 

I do a induction cleaning once a year and time it with a oil change.

 

I also clean mine once a year to keep the engine running at it's best. I have seen the smoke from the headers, you are talk about, on a couple of engine. Never able to decide why it does that, other then I usually do the cleaning when the engine is cooler and if you have an exhaust gasket that may be warn out, it may not be sealed enough when cold and some smoke may pass thru.
