Subject:Re: My 1.9 runs best in humid or rainy weather. Why is this?

Well, I cleand the ground at the transmission.Also, the grounds near the
coil and the two set ofgrounds at the left, engine head. No change.I put a
ground wire on the o2 sensor. Still no change.I got hose clamps on every
single hose connection and same with the 8 places on the intake runners.I
got a grounded afm and it has the capacitor added.Throttle switch is bueno.

I can change the timing a bit either way , and change the big air screw a
bit (with the idle staqbilizer bypassed). Still, I get the same amount of
surge, 100-150 or so rpms. I suppose my main concern is passing emissions .
Any hope here? any new suggestions? Go get tested on a rainy day?
