Rain problems with my 300zx

My 300zx runs great, but when it rains I can't even take it out of the garage. It won't shift! I have put 4 map sensor on it, no change. AS soon as the weather changes back to hot or dry. It's a great car. Dealer told me it was MAF sensor/not. It has to be some kind of sensor, please help. ?????? This has got to be a simple fix. The car won't shift when theres any condensation, any idea's.

SOURCE: Missing 2 cylinders, no heat, oil leak. 300zx HELP ME PLEASE

If you have no heat at all and its smoking white out the tail pipes then you have a blown headgasket. That is why you aren't running on 2 cylinders.

Check you coolant level to see if you have a blown head gasket. The tick is from not having enough oil in the engine. Oil always leaks from these but not too often its the rear main, just depends.

Does it smoke white out the tail pipes?

SOURCE: Check Engine Light constantly on, car stalling out please help!

if you notice it when it is wet out then i would do a tune -up but if not i would check the fuel injectors because they are a very very common problem with these years of cars. i do them all the time.

please give me a repair history and i will try to help.

i would think it may be a distributor cap or wires as they are the only things that when wet are a problem like you mention or the coil may have carbon tracking try looking at coil and cap at night when dark and see if you see any arcing if you do there is your problem

Sounds like water is leaking in the electrial componets inside the dash panel from the windshield. You should ask the Shop that did the work for thier insurance company infomation and file a claim. The corrosion caused by the water WILL cause further problems in the future. I would have the vehicle looked at by a GM dealer to make sure it's repaired right.
If the Shop won't give you the insurance infomation, contact you State's comsurmer advocate.

I put my car up 4 the winter it was running great.... I pulled it out it was running great.... it rained real bad and a lot of moisture it would start for 3 months.... then it started back up running great...

Check spark plug wires and ignition parts, try using WD-40 type of moisture remover. Ignition coils tend to react to moisture if it gets inside.

1998 subaru forester runs rough when it rains.

Check the cap and rotor for internal carbon tracking or, just change them. Also, take a look at the coil when its dark and rainy and see if there is any arcing where the coil wire goes into it.
