Hey all, got a weird one... forgive me if this makes no sense but the problem im having is kind of hard to explain.

First off..it only happens on rainy days.
d16y7 - 97 civic lx

if the car is wet from a rain fall, the car will start fine, but once i start to drive theres no power from the engine at all. I try to drive out of my underground garage and can't even make it up the hill. Once the car eventually warms up well, its fine. but before that im sitting ducks.

any ideas?

that is kinda weird...i don't really have an idea..... in for what problem could be..

kinda irrelevant but i would consider cleaning your throttle body, iacv....check main grounds...

Its the distributor issue. Could have a bad gasket on the distributor cap or the dizzy overall is bad.

When the car is running properly, pop the hood and spray water on the spark plug wires, distributor cap. This way you can isolate where the problem is. Im laying odds on the spark plug wires
