Every time we have very humid damp weather i cannot start the car.
Battery is great.
Starter cranks like a horse kicks.
Changed out distributor cap and no improvement.

Can't figure this one out

The 87 would fire up even with pressurized water spraying right on the engine

What am i missing here? coil?

The entire engine is coated in a water film from the fog

Frustrated in Dallas
