wet weather issues!!

Had our first real good rain of the spring this morning. Went to take the kid to Best Buy to pick up his new TV (yes, he is spoiled rotten!), started running very rough, low power on acceleration and died at stop sign/light five times. Started right up, but still running rough, but getting better. No lights or codes! Had the same issue last fall on a foggy damp day, and took to my brother's shop, had trouble keeping it running just to get it in the shop for the night. Next morning, perfect. No issues, has been none since, until this morning! Where do I start with no codes or lights! Thanks in advance!

Mark, thanks for the link. I checked under the hood and all was dry, but just to make sure, I took out the hose and sprayed down the truck really good, with high pressure and a steady shower and the under hood was bone dry. Thanks for the tip, but back to square one

I had the same problem on mine this last fall. I figured a good time to replaced plugs, pcv valve, & coil boots. Ordered parts from rockauto & figured it would make it until parts showed up. Well long story short it got worse so I ended up going to Napa & buying 4 coil packs and replaced the back 4 coil packs. 2 on each side & so far so good. I also had no light or codes in the system. I did replace spark plugs & the 6 other coil boots. I am going to replace the other 6 coil packs soon. This is what worked for me.
