Water coming out of tailpipe?
Every morning, I let my 4runner warm up at least a few minutes, when I give it gas, water comes out of the exhaust, not drips, but a gush of water...what causes this? This only happens every morning, even in the summer here.....

I was losing coolant, had a leak in a hose, but I will monitor the coolant the next few days to see if I am losing coolant...if I am losing coolant, what could be the cause?

If it were a head gasket, wouldnt it heat up while driving? Could there be another possible factor? After the engine cools over night, would that allow water to seep through the headgasket?

Water is normal. Coolant is not. Find out if its indeed water or coolant.
Water comming out of a cold exhaust pipe is perfectly normal, its a sign that the catalytic converter is doing its job. I wouldnt worry about it
