Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for removing moisture from an engine exhaust system. In one example, a method includes, during a vehicle key-off condition, in response to a higher than threshold exhaust moisture level and a lower than threshold engine run time during an immediately prior drive cycle, operating an electric air compressor to remove the moisture accumulated in the exhaust manifold.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the engine includes an exhaust gas recirculation passage coupling the exhaust system to the intake system, downstream of the electric air compressor, and wherein routing the compressed air through the intake system and the exhaust system further includes opening an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve coupled to the exhaust gas recirculation passage to flow compressed air exiting the electric air compressor to the exhaust system.
