Hello. I have been living with chronic wet start issues, sounding a lot like cgilmore Dec. 5th post. It is mysterious and inconsistent. Warm, pervasive, foggy mist seems a sure culprit. Prolongued rain another. If it rains heavily while the car is in use, driving is not affected. Mechanics have checked and replaced some obvious, but I may go crazy if I hear distributor cap, spark plugs, ignition coil one more time! One mechanic suggested the ethanol in gasoline was causing wet fuel and recommended Seafoam or Lucas, and Shell gasoline. I frequently use premium grade Shell, and have tried Lucas, but nothing cures. Currently enjoying one of the wettest Boston Decembers on record, my beloved 1992 240 wagon is increasingly undependable. Reading the posts bring my thoughts back to what may or may not be a clue: My wagon still has the wiring from one of those huge, original cell phones that sat in a flex holder on the passenger side, and whose small microphone hangs down the driver side from a black wire emerging from the seam of the white ceiling cover. Sometimes, but not always, rain water drips down that microphone into the car. Driving in a heavy summer rain and wearing flip flops, water once began dripping from somewhere under the instrument dash onto my left foot. Can anyone venture a guess as to how these leaks are occurring, what they might be affecting, and any connection to wet starting problems? P.S. The battery is new. The starter strong. A rock cracked the windshield and it was replaced. The car seems to want to turn over, but it reminds me of trying to strike a damp match. Or of dry, inefficient coughing. As others have experienced, when the weather clears, my wonderful, vintage "Duckboat" takes off smiling, and our troubles seem to fade. Until the clouds next darken!
