93 Festiva turns over but wont start...weather?

[jimdigs]

First my blower motor now this. A little background. I have not started the festiva since Christmas Eve. 3 days. The weather was real cold then, today when I went to try and start the thing it is mid 50s and real wet and rainy. When I first cranked her over it kinda sputtered and acted like it needed gas. I tried again, same thing. Now it just cranks with no sputtering at all. Was wondering if it may have to do with something getting wet or damp?!? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Jim in Michigan

I've had vehicles get moisture / condensation inside the distributor cap that prevents energy transfer to the spark plugs. Did you try pulling out a spark plug & cranking, to see if they're getting any spark?

Grab a can of WD40 spray down coil,sparkplug wires and distributor cap,should start,had that problem a few times!
If it starts its time for a major tuneup!

Thanks guys did what you guys suggested with the wd40 and she started right up. This forum is GREAT!! Thanks a bunch it is appreciated.
Also, I also got my blower motor gowing by rapping on it with a wrench. Started blowing away and all this time I was freezing my gonads off. Thanks again to you guys on the forum for all the help. Jim
