Spark plug

Ok when I was driving today...All suddenly my car sounds like it's miss firing...Then it got louder...When I came home my spark plugs (the one front of coolant tank) and coil pop out...And I try putting the spark plug in but it won't ...So do I have to swap new head or motor...

Wow that sounds serious. Do you have any history on the car any recent work done?

Do some research and you'll find the problem is not unusual, but usually on the back bank.
Depends on the damage as to what needs to done to fix the problem. If threads are completely gone, usually the head needs to
be removed and repaired or another head needed. Some have been repaired while still on the engine, heli-coil, but debris needs to be cleaned out.

You will need to have it inspected. Most likely will need to helicoil it, but if it isn't repairable you will need to buy a new head. If you go the helicoil route I would recommend removing from the block to avoid debris in the cylinder but if its toast I have one forsale.
