Well, it started raining like crazy here and all my problems are coming back to haunt me. I was on my way to work this morning and I don't even reach the end of my street and my car starts hesitating, sputtering, and backfiring. I've had this problem ever since I got the car. Every time I take it into the dealer they replace the plugs and wires. It's been doing it occasionally here and there on dry roads, but now that the roads are wet....it's all the time. I had to drive to Martinez tonite and I didn't think I was going to make it home. That's how bad it is. Obviously, something is shorting out or causing an arc somewhere with the water. Has anyone else had symptoms like this before? I'm wondering if it's something besides the plug wires. I looked under the hood when I got home and everything is dry that I can see. My filter is dry, MSD is dry, ECU is dry...???? It's got to be that DAMN #3 wire again!!! I'm just so frustrated right now, I hope it floods tonite and my car gets washed away, or at least the service department at the dealership gets wiped out. AAAAHHH!!! Anyone had any luck with the Accel Extreme 8mm wires? I've also heard that the heat wrap from Summit is pretty good too. Ideas??? Anyone???
