92 teg wont start when wet out. why?

 

pre coinsidence and your starter or battery just died?

 

OT: i like your screen name man heheh

happy dim sum! hahah

 

How old are your distributor cap & plug wires? First they get flaky when wet, then eventually they they're bad all the time.

 

pretty old, i dont remember how old. is that the reason mainly of could it be some other places?

 

It's probably your distributer cap/wires. Take a spray bottle of water and spray it on your cap and try to start it. You'll probably find that the car won't start and maybe if you get it running it and spray the water on the cap the car may start to miss or stall out. Replace your cap + rotor and make sure you get the rubber gasket for the cap.

 

Check your cap and rotor, you probably have a crack. I had that same thing happen to my Trans-am.

 

Not starting when humidity is high is a common problem among older Camrys, and I believe the problem was something inside the distributor, either the cap or maybe the contacts on the ignitor or something like that. Either way something isn't sealing, and you probably need to replace the cap and the little gasket that comes with it. You should probably also replace the dist. rotor. I do not recommend getting these from an auto parts store, go with OEM Honda parts for this stuff.

 

man thx. i probably got ripped off at a local shop. new distrutor, new cap and rotor, used window motor, cable wire for opening hood, all for 1100. parts for 500-600 and then rest was for labor. i coulda got these parts for less if i found it myself and actually had it redone by a friend. i didnt know until after i got it done.
