Hello (Hello DILLARD000),
From my exhaust is dripping out gasoline (should be gasoline, or not?). Any idea what this could be for a 2003 Ford Explorer?
Thank you for your time and help!!
 






I’m assuming it only does this on a cold start, and stops as it warms up? Smelly water should come out of a cold exhaust ( condensation made when it cooled off) but if raw gas is coming out you are either running extremely rich, or have an injector stuck open.

Pulling the plugs would tell you. If one is super clean, you almost surely have a sticking injector. If it’s a bank, or all of them you have another issue.
