Starts fine when it's hot and/or dry, but when raining or cool, it just cranks.
I saw some of the previous questions on this same issue, but have been unable to determine what the issue is.
I replaced the plugs and wires and removed the distributor cap. Everything inside the cap looked dry and very clean. I sprayed WD-40 inside, wiped, applied grease to the seal and replaced the cap.
Then I noticed that when I touch the center of the cap when the car is running, I feel a shock. Does this mean that the cap is losing charge and needs to be replaced or would you recommend replacing the entire distributor assembly? I have about 125000 miles on it.
Thanks,
