It's has been a couple week now since the repair and it finally rained, three days straight, time to put the repair to a test. It stared right off the bat within 1 or 2 seconds, the first morning after the rain, the next morning it had a 4 or 5 second hesitation, and today it started again with about the same 4 or 5 second hesitation. That's much better than cranking it for up to 10 min as it was before! Time to replace all the old items mentioned with new ones. Your idea to seal the distributor cap sounds good. That is to seal the bottom of the distributor cap with a little grease to keep out any moister if something doesn't fit tightly.
Thanks again everyone. I'm sure an other problem will pop up again with a truck this old. Until then, thanks
