B2 stalls in rain

I'm begining to think that buying this truck was a bad idea. Ever since i bought it ive been having problems in the rain. when it is raining out it stalls out and then will start, Ive sprayed down the cap, ingnition module, plug wires, and coil, and the thing runs fine. Im running out of ideas. Does anyone have some help.

First off, what year is it. Did you try to put some dieletric grease on the plug that goes into your coil?

if it is 2.9 liter v6 between the years 84-96 i more or less has a TFI ignition module on the Distributer... now that has a tendency to sparticlly die and work if it is wet or to hot...
Well that is my Guess!

But yes as dirtybroncoii said we need more info on the vehicle... (year, engine, 4x4 or not)

Also make sure that there is some Dieletric grease on the back of the TFI module too. Fallow this link if you need to know what to get at the parts store

Mine does the same thing. It seems when the weather damp it does it. I have replaced the plugs, plug wires, cap, rotor, used dielectric on it all, rebuilt the carb, replaced the coil, the egr valve and sensor, all the control solenoids, the eca, fuel pump, about everything under the hood. The thing turns up an 11 code which says things are fine. Something has to be out of adjustment. Anyone who could help??
