Default question

yesterday was very humid and while the car was running i noticed a small amount of vapor coming out of the oil filler neck when i took the cap off while the car was running. today was less humid and i did the same thing but no vapor came out. is it normal to see alittle vapor coming out on a hot humid day. it was not puffing out and did not apear to have any pressure forcing it out.

Steam is more visible on humid days than on dry days because it dissipates quicker/easier in the dryer air.

So in answer to your question......yes.
