Start by replacing the spark plug wires and the high voltage coil to
distributor wire. High humidity makes it easier for spark to jump to
the wrong place.

Subject: [oletrucks] Difficulty in starting (one more try)
Could not get the text to show up in my last 2 emails. Let's see
if this works.
I've got a question......What might cause my truck to have trouble
starting
when it's damp outside (rain, drizzle, fog, etc)? I use the truck to
get to
work and it sits all day. On a dry day, it will start right up, but on
days
where is a bit damp outside it can take several attempts before it
starts
up. Temperature doesn't seem to be a factor since it starts right up
when
it's been cold and dry. It's got a stock ignition.....nothing fancy.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Jeff
