Re: Car runs poorly in rain

This might not be it, but when it rains and I drive into a water, 
water actually gets in my alternator (or on the belt) and the 
alternator goes out, making the car run on the battery for a couple 
of minutes.  If you have a voltage gauge, check it out more 
frequently when it rains.
