Coolant can enter the cylinders due to a few primary issues, such as a blown head gasket, which allows coolant to leak from the cooling system into the combustion chamber. Cracked engine blocks or cylinder heads can also create pathways for coolant to escape into the cylinders. Additionally, a damaged intake manifold can lead to coolant intrusion, particularly in engines where the manifold contains water passages. These issues often result in engine misfires, reduced performance, and potential damage if not addressed promptly.

Check for "fog" or smells coming from the heater core, indicating a heater core leak. Check the oil for a milky color in case coolant is leaking into the oil. If these areas are ok, then perform a pressure test on the cylinders, as there is probably a blown head gasket allowing coolant to leak into the cylinder and be lost through the exhaust.
