Big problem plz help

While driving around last nite, my radiator hose clamp broke so my radiator hose shot off and spooged coolant all over my damn engine bay, not that bad, cept I have an open elemnt air filter. So I immeadiatly turned the car off and pulled over. Now when i got the car home (I pushed it) I took off the air filter and sure enough there was moisture in the MAF. So i took the MAF off and there was moisture inside the rubber hose coming out of the MAF. Now my question is, A) What are the odds that I did intake some coolant and B) What will it do if it did and what do i do!? HELP!

I am sure you are ok. I would be more worried about the loss of coolant than getting some into the intake.

the coolant will just burn off... don't worry about it

Make sure your cooling system gets put back together right.
