I'm Awesome
I have a 98 Silverado with a 5.7 350. It's hard to start after it rains rather it's the same day or day after. If it's 2 days or more after (not starting that whole time) it starts up fine. I can get it started, but I have to floor the gas and then let the ignition go back to the "on" position and it barely starts with a hard stumble. If I don't touch the gas it just turns over and doesn't even try to start. Once it starts it sounds and acts fine while idling. Once I start to drive it a little it will stumble like there's an ignition problem, but after 2 or 3 miles roughly it stops.
I want to assume it might be something with the distributer, but not sure. I just figure something is getting wet and then dries after driving a little. I had the whole distributer replaced about a year or 2 ago. I did take the cap off and everything looked fine and put it back on tight. I probably should have taken the rotor off to, but didn't. I also made sure all of the spark plug wires on both ends were on good.
Any ideas? Thanks
