The UK is pretty wet and this isn't a common problem here 
Usual culprits of misfire are ignition related, change/check in this order (imho): 1. Plugs - fit NGK BKR7E for cars upto 400hp 2. Check ignition timing 3. Replace rotor arm 4. Replace dizzy cap 5. Check engine/battery earths 6. Replace ignition leads If it's a usual problem the above will fix it at your lowest cost

For misfire when wet I would most suspect external ignition components I.e. leads cracked dizzy cap or rotor arm. |
