Default Accord overheating

So my daughter drove her car while it was overheating, and now it will not start. I know start with the basic, got the leak fixed on the radiator. However, the car wasn't turning over. The car apparently got so hot that it deformed the spark plug wires resulting in me being able to remove three out of four. The last I think, cylinder 1, melted the plug in the head. Is this repairable? I will remove the head this week to check the head out as see what is what. Motor is a F22B.

You "might be lucky"

Use a screw diver or something to break the rest of the plastic off the plug.....then a shop vac or something to get to pieces out of the tube(s). Get the last plug out....might take a time or two to get all of the plastic off and out.

Compression test the engine.....then decide if you want/need to pull the head.

Got to love kids....my youngest was born in 1993 and I still get stories from him that make me shake my head......"you did WHAT".
