    Default 98 APEX 5.7 MPI Running hot on starboard side

    The 5.7 APEX MPI in my 98 Saltare, with 185 operating hours on it, emits a very fine water vapor out of the starboard exhaust between 3000 and 4000 RPMs. After a ski run, the starboard exhaust water is noticeably warmer than the port side. After a minute at idle, the temperatures equalize. The temperature gauge is working as it should, and the engine temp has never climbed above 175 degrees. No obstructions or loose hardware around the starboard exhaust or on the swim platform are causing this vapor to form and blow back into the skier's face. Have a call in to PCM to see what the problem, if any, may be. Engine Oil looks fine.
    Any ideas?

    Take off the exhaust hose and inspect the inside. I had one break apart (on the inside), and caused a temp difference.
