[DML] DeLorean won't start!

I need help. About a month ago, I took the Delorean
out to the store. A large rain storm came through. I
waiting until it was just drizzling afterwards,
started the D and drove off. I got about 1000 yards
and the D engine just quit.
I tried a few starts, pressing very lightly on the gas
as to not flood it (I probably did anyway). It never
started. Even after an hour and switching the to
cold/hot start option.
This happened when I first got the D, however, after
about 30 minutes, I tried the cold/hot swap option and
that fixed it.
This time, I'm perplexed as to what it could be.
Right before the D meet in Gettysburg, we changed out
the oxygen sensor, added new plugs, coil, and
distributor cap, it ran fine all the way up (from NC)
and down.
I want to believe that the rain had something to do
with it, maybe getting in to something, but, after the
rain dries, shouldn't it be OK?
My father-in-law is good with cars and he's scratching
his head. I've done some searching on the archives of
this list, but nothing is really standing out.
Does anyone have somewhere I can start?
Again, Thanks very much in advance!
