This can only be one thing. The head gasket is bad. It has to be replaced. It is not good to drive the vehicel like this cause it can cause more engine problems down the road. this is an indicator of a bad head gasket, coolant cools the engine through a water passage around the outside of the cylinder walls. the coolant is leaking past the head gasket and passing through the exhaust valve into the tailpipe.
