  • Where does water get under the hood?

    I'm missing something, somewhere.
    Whenever it rains, I must be getting water on the coils.. if the car sits out in the rain, it'll spit, sputter and misfire bad for a few minutes after I start it. The weatherstripping along the cowl looks fine and I don't see where it can leak there. There's no other weatherstripping under the hood.
    What am I missing? I'm sorta baffled?

        Check where one of the screws goes through part of the plastic cowl. Mine will leak there once in a blue moon after a hard rain. Something in it shifted and it will drain a couple drops that land right at the base of the coil packs on the ICM.

          keep your hood up and put a garden hose on the windshield.

          this will show you where it is leaking from.
