Won't start when it is wet out.

What is your question?

My Bravada will start fine and run great as long as it is dry outside, but the least bit of humidity or moisture in the air it will try to crank over, and I have spark, but it will not start. My mechanic has cleaned the sensors, changed timing chain, replaced plugs and wires, cleaned injectors, and had the distributor tested and it was fine.

The most common problem is cap rotor and wires, which is sounds like you have done. The second most common problem is a microscopic crack in the top of the ignition coil, causing weak spark to the plugs. When it is dry and it starts, try wetting down the coil and see if that shuts it off.

Thank you for the reply. I am going to try those items. If that doesnt take care of it I think it will be time to part ways. :)
