Re: 88 escort doesnt start when raining or cold

alright this should be a simple fix. you already replaced the wires so we can rule that out. i'd go ahead and replace the cap&rotor they are cheap and wear out with time due to arcing and carbon tracking. i'm leaning towards either the coil or ignition module. so heres the trick: fill a spray bottle with water and add some salt. when the motors running spray the ignition components one at a time you'll know when you find the culprit because the car will die. good luck
