Default 2002 Civic EX engine shakes when it rains.

I have a 2002 civic ex, and when it rains, somthingin the engine shakes and makes noise. I have injen intake, and at first i thought that it might be sucking in water so i got a heat shield/splash guard and it is still doing it. If anyone has any suggestions on what it might be, i would appreciate ur help alot.

are you flooring it? it could be traction.

My car used to spin its tires when it rains, even on 5th gear!!!

Its not when he floors it. He can just be crusing in a parking lot and it will do it. Its not the tires, something in his engine.

Is it a stick? Does it only do it at low speeds? Its probably due to a lack of torque. They all do that.

moisture getting in his distributor cap or plug wires? just a guess. How is his idle when this problem occurs?

do a search on 7thgencivic.com's forums for this problem. There is a TSB(Tech Service Bulletin) out on it- my old 2001 EX did the same thing.
