Morning all! I’m new so be gentle.
I couldn’t find a similar thread so starting a new one.
I inadvertently became the owner of a 2001 1.4 AUA while I complete an engine swap on my truck. She’s a little rough but I love her.
Last night we had torrential rain, and now she’s misfiring like no tomorrow.
I’m going to bet the coil pack is toast (I replaced it with a good OE brand a few months ago, so a little frustrating).
I’m going to attempt to dry her out and start her, but worst case, I’ll do coil, HD leads and sparks all together.
My long winded question is, why?! Does anyone else have this problem in heavy rain? What other than the little drain tube do I need to look out for to prevent this happening again. Are they really that delicate that I can’t park drivers side down if the drain tube is clear and flowing?
I’m good with tools but unfamiliar with these little nuggets!
Thanks in advance!
