Default Re: car died, starts later

That same thing happened to a guy in our club when we were on tour. Ford never used rubber boots on either end of the coil wire, but many people add them. His coil boot trapped a few drops of water and shorted the spark to ground.

BTW, I won't use boots, just to stay more original, beside the fact it can trap water.
