I had a coolant fitting pop out of my head on an old Civic after some hooning one night... Coolant completely leaked everywhere, temp was sky high... So I limped the car to my destination which was like 1/2 mile away and all was fine after I let it cool and refilled it w/ water. Drained water and refilled with coolant/distilled water as soon as I got home the next morning and the car ran great.

I'm sure your car is going to be fine.
Thanks man this is good info!
