What cause $hit to spew out exhaust when punching it

Hey Guys,

I've known my car hasn't been running great for a while. Partly because I needed to replace the O2 sensor and also I noticed that my MPG was horrible(19mpg). The get up and go wasn't getting up and going there any longer either. But today a co-worker was behind me on the highway and I punched it and he told me all kinds of fluid was shooting out of the exhaust? This can't be normal, any ideas? I've already replaced the coils about 30k or 40k miles ago, replaced the plugs around 50k,have recently had the fuel system treated, have a clean air filter....etc... I'm thinking maybe the MAF or possibly the coils again.

Thanks in advance

"sure it wasn't just water?" could be... Could it also be like unused gas?
