Default evap system

Was chasing the evap codes on my 99 xj ,Come to find out it was a blown fuse ,I really don't know how long the jeep was run like this before I got it . But as soon as I put the new fuse in and fired it up it ran just fine and no more cel light , I let the engine warm up,I had a pretty steady stream of water flowing out of the muffler and it was just plain water ,Is this normal ?

Condensation is normal in the muffler, more so with a leaky exhaust esp when been sitting a while.

Thanks for the reply ,I understand some but this was enough to fill up 3/4 of a 20 oz mountain dew bottle before I turned the engine off .

Hmm. Well, water is water, if it's not coolant, it has to be condensation. ?
I've seen them blow water out for a day and a half when really loaded up. My brother has an astro van, he parked it while he rebuilt the tranny, and this was the case.
