When I run my 1999 Voltzwagon through the smallest of puddles on a rainy day it stalls out, and wont start until it dries out.

What could be causing this problem.  How can I fix it.

Hi Jerry,

I sure am still having the same problem.  I spent $207.00 replacing the distributor cap and wires.  I have steer clear of puddles, but if it rains, it's hard to start.

Thanks for the reponse!

I think your next likely suspect is the coil.  I've seen that a lot of times over the years.  Try that and see if it does the trick!
