Re: 2.5 V6 Petrol auto won't start when it's wet or cold

Thanks - I was assuming getting the distributor unit changed included the cap, but I guess not. I suppose I’d better get someone to go through all those points you mentioned - problem is it’s all fine unless the weather changes, so how does anytime know what the culprit is or how to stop it ...
