I had gotten a check engine light and the code came up a p0306 misfire in cylinder 6. I figured the spark plug went bad so I decided to change it out and when I took the boot off it was filled with coolant. I didn't see anything leaking from the top but I did notice some coolant dripping from underneath. Anyone have an idea what it could be?

If you have coolant in the cylinder, then we need to go to the head gasket first. Here is a test that we need to run through:

Let's start here and go from there. Thanks
