Default Car bogs and looses power when it rains
My moms 97 civic sputters and eventually turns off when it rains. It drives fine on dry weather. Is it the alternator that ****s up when it gets wet? It's throwing no CELs either.

Did you install an OEM distributor and plug wires? Did you install NGK spark plugs?
