... thoughts? If I were you I'd try to understand the situation right away.
It sounds as though you have a slow coolant leak into the cylinders. My
would be if there was enough of a leak to create a hydro lock situation ...
that would be very bad.
Generally you can tell by looking at the spark plugs ... if one or two spark
plugs is a whole bunch cleaner than the rest then you have a coolant leak
into that/those cylinders ...
