My dang 400 has sat at the Iowa fairgrounds since Tuesday, and today it wouldn't start! It had been rained on Wednesday and Thursday, so maybe that's why it won't start. I had the exhaust covered too. I believe it is getting fuel because it drips from the carb after I try to start it. As the motor is cranking a fine white mist seems to come from the muffler (unburnt fuel?).I've checked the firing order, checked for moisture in the distributor cap and plug wires, and I ran a dollar bill through the points. My battery is one crank away from dead.... Could it just be moisture somewhere in the electrical system? Condenser? It has a 12 volt conversion kit. Would water on the resistor be causing a problem? I have to have it running by around 9 AM for FFA judging. Thank you
