Hey guys my car has problems starting after there has been heavy rain. Last night it was running fine but went to start it this morning and it kept turning over till the bat died. It almost fires but stops, this has happend afew times once its rained. I have covered it in damp start WD40 and & damp protect but once the bat is charged it will fire up straight away. Is there anything I can do or check to see whats happening ?

Any help would be good cheers

Maybe you need a new battery. It might be on its way out. Have you taken out all the spark plus and checked them for moisture? Take off the distributor cap & check all the contacts are dry.
Hope this helps.
