Well, hopefully to put your mind a little more at ease, this happened on my former beetle on a long trip from NH to NY. Somewhere around CT this horrible noise started coming from the engine compartment. I thought, "oh my gosh." (well, I'm censoring myself for list postment) I went around back & there was the spark plug on the engine tin, still had the ignition wire connected. Tightened it up again and off I went. Kept a watch on it from then on though. No ill effects followed. Just a freaky thing...
