I have an old 1965 Buick LeSabre which I have had for several years.  This
car usually runs like a champ and, for the most part, is very dependable,
especially in the winter time.  However, for about the last year or so, the
car seems to have a problem starting whenever it rains.  The engine just
won't kick in.  Some times I do manage to get it started in the rain, but
it runs like a dog and it dies every time I stop for a light or whatever.

So what's the car's problem and how can it be fixed (or can it) without costing
a mint.  All legitimate suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

						Thanks in advance
