explain a bit further., what happened ? radiator cracked,, fluid leaked out and overheated the engine?

have the radiator been replaced and filled with correct fluid?

There's nothing wrong with the top plug wire in the picture. When you pulled out the plug wire, it stuck on the top of the plug and the boot slid up. Just push the boot back down.

But bad plug wires can cause hesitation. Do you see any little burn marks on the boots where the spark may be arcing?
