Default hesitation/stuttering only when it rains
01 v6 hesitates and sputtered when i first start it up only when it rains or its really foggy outside. Once its at normal operating temp it is fine. 2 days ago in all this rain it was bad. So bad i got an error code p0301. Any suggestions?? I was thinking about replacing the wires and plugs.

Mine does that SOMETIMES... My fix is to just not drive it when it rains!

I know its not my spark plugs or COP's bc i JUST changed both of them out...

I replaced my coil pack about a year ago. So that shouldn't be the probelm. I'm shooting for the wires because i haven't changed them in a while. Could an exhuast leak be the problem too?

Sounds like it's the wires the PO301 is a misfire code for cyl 1. Easy way to find out is to spray the wires with a water bottle and see if the car starts missing again
