No Start Again!!

would a bad pickup coil be the problem of no start?
or is it still the water in the distributor cap?

weather stripping on hood is bad probably ,
there engine is soaked like someone put a fire hose on it
EVERYTHING is wet in the engine and it always is when its humid or rainy or snowy
should there be a seal around bottom of distributor cap?
did it come with one cuz i had the car for a while & it never had one
please help

If water is getting into the cap that would cause the no start condition. The pickup coil would also cause the no start but I'd get the cap to stay dry first. Check the back of your hood -- there should be a strip of weatherstripping running across the back of it. That may need replacing and should keep things dry
