Exchanger leaking would only mix antifreeze with raw water. Wouldn’t get into the motor.

Is this a closed cooling or open cooling? Running on a hose, well or city water?

Intimidate,

I'm putting $10 on the head gasket, or maybe cracked cylinder head.

Thanks. Brad.

That is a massive leak to hydro lock 2 cylinders in 2 minutes of idle time.
