Its also a good idea to replace the rotor when ever you replace the cap. I've seen more then one cap or rotor have a hair line crack in them and then when its wet out you can't fire the engine up. One way to find out if its a cracked cap is to turn the engine over and hold your hand on the cap. If its cracked you will know if real real fast becuase you will jump about 5 foot. BTDT nad yes it works to find a cap problem but its also not fun to do it that way. Years ago we had a GMC pickup that would get that way when it was wet out and 90% of the time it was a cap/rotor problem on it and thats the way I figured out the problem. Its something you will only do once
