Don't be suprised if you end up having trouble starting it in the rain soon. As you have probably read my post, once I get mine started (in the rain/damp), it too runs rough just as you are explaining. At first I thought it was gas related but I believe it to be ignition related. Check the recommended resolution that someone posted under my post. I am going to give it a shot and I will post my findings once I do (probably in a few weeks).
If we get enough heads working on this we might find a solution!
Thanks, DJ

check the coil and wires could be arcing when it is wet out.

I would recommend replacing the following... plugs, wires, cap, rotor and coil. I did all of these things and my problem (not staring in the rain) has subsided. I do believe all I really needed to repalce was the coil though.

Replace the plug wires and you'll be good to go.
