of the 2000 mile trip I came across a problem. I would be driving on the
freeway and the car would die, first it was shake and it felt like it wasn't
getting enough fuel or something like that. And the weird thing is this
happened to me twice and both times, it was pouring down rain. When the
weather was fine the car drove just fine. So I though that the rain was
somehow contributing to this problem, Has anyone ever had this happen to
them or what?

My dad recently cleaned the car with high-pressure and after that the engine
of the car also behaved weird. It shooked like hell. It appeared that water
prevented some spark-plugs from making a good spark; it ran on 4 cylinders
or something. After we replaced these spark-plugs and cleaned the
distributor-cap the car drove well again.
