Would a major rainstorm cause my car to not start on the first two tries?
I'm in Maryland and there's a flash flood warning. It's raining heavily here. My car runs poorly in bad driving conditions such as when it's raining heavily like right now and high altitudes. It's a 2009 Honda Civic. Would a major rainstorm cause my car to not start on the first two tries?
Possibly: an aging electrical system does not respond well to high-humidity conditions.
Yes.
Make sure battery cables are tight and clean. Having quality spark plugs and wires changed on time is also a good way to ensure a prompt start and fuel consumption.
Obviously WATER is causing the problem, right? Buy a can of Ignition Sealer, it's a waterproof spray coating and a tube of Dielectric Grease. Look online for the LOCATION of the Crank Sensor, Cam Sensor, MAF and MAP and disconnect them apply the dielectric grease inside the connector and plug it back in. Do that to all the connectors you can find, coils, injectors and other sensors. When you're done spray everything you greased with the Ignition Sealer. You should notice a difference. The MAP might be your Altitude problem. Make sure it has Vacuum when running.

- Can I return a used car I purchased yesterday from a major dealership in Texas? I just purchased a pre-owned 2013 Honda, with bumper to bumper warranty, but realized I necessarily think I received the best deal. After checking the Carfax, there were two different mileages shown. I mentioned it to the dealer and they advised it was an error. I have also noticed the car may have done mechanical issues, and my car was not detailed or gas filled when i purchased. Am I still within my limits to return?
