starting problem

do your cars have trouble starting in the rain? it is raining right now and my car won't start. i also know someone else that has had that problem before. i have no clue why. i tried unflooding the engine, but that didn't do anything. i got the same result. if you guys have any answers to why this might be, please let me know.

I can't help you, I actually have the same problem. My 83 GSL has had a bit of trouble starting in the rain ever since I added the Dellorto. Always starts in the end though. Hopefully someone else can explain why this happens.
