Cold Exhaust

On the drivers side exhaust of my truck, the exhaust coming out is cold. But on the passenger side the exhaust is coming out hot. Does anyone know why on one side its cold?

is it true dual exhaust?

Misfiring or non firing cylinder or cylinders would cause that

Re: Cold Exhaust

well mixture will change the heat of the exhaust, the leaner the hotter it will get, do you have any running issues , missfires, ect
