Car Troubleshooting 101
Does your car refuse to start? Need to run some troubleshooting? In these cases, it’s important to remain methodical. If you don’t have a multimeter, consider getting one. Check the battery and posts. Occasionally, battery problems result from dirty connectors, and a wired brush is all that’s needed to do the trick. If it turns out you have wet spark plugs, remove them so they can dry. If all else fails, take your car in and have a mechanic look at it. If your car only refuses to start when its raining, check the distributor cap. If it’s damp, use some solvent to evaporate the dampness. That should do the trick.
