Spark Plug Coolant Damage?

I was just wonder...

Can Spark Plugs get damaged from when they are pluged in to the engine and coolant is spilled on them while the car is still on?

i wouldn't worry too much about it..... unless you have a cracked spark plug wire or a bad plug it really shouldn't effect the plugs at all, just wipe it off and they should be fine

One time I got some water on my plug wires and they were SUPER old... the water got into the wires and toasted them... I'd pull the wires off to make sure they aren't crispy....

but. I suppose you didn't say you had a problem... You were just asking.
