Arggh! Sorry about the problems. Guessing lots of things go soaked when radiator up a leaked out on you. The sudden shock of wet on electrical things could easily damage especially any high voltage items that got wet or sprayed with hot coolant. Check for which ones you thing were possibly in the line of spraying coolant.

How hard did it overheat? I'm betting if everything else is ok or was right before that this has no spark now and is secondary ignition problems?? (Item involved with making spark)
