yeah me too. on my '87 9000t I recently had ignition related drivability problems in WET WEATHER. The plugs, wires, cap rotor, AND module were all new so I knew it had to be distributor related. $40 at a junkyard got me a 130,000 mile distributor out of a 1988 9000t. Sure enough a week later that starts developing problems due to the hall sensor in it. I rebuilt the old distributor and it's fine now.
Something interesting I noticed- after 15 years and 185,000 miles, the distributor's vent holes got all clogged up which problably kept moisture from escaping. Due your car a favor and take a needle to clean the junk out of the 4 holes around the distrubutor, or better yet take it off and give it a good cleaning.
