When it rains my trusty 998 runs a little rough its got new points cap condensor and plugs. Ihave a rubber glove over the dizzy with the leads coming out of the fingers and tapped up the glove is a tight fit over the dizzy base.

Anyone got any ideas

thanks

hello .if it runs rough when its wet it will be the ht leads arcing out on somethingmake sure the ht leads are routed away from metel objects.Has it got the sheld in front of the distributer this will help alot.sometimes the glove will not help as it will condensate in the glove.There is a spray that can help it seals the leads:) hope this helps
