:banghead: I have a 1990 that stalls in wet weather. I have replaced the dist cap and wires. Do I need to replace the cold start fuel injecter or are there other things I should try first?

Did you replace the rotor?

The generation 2 Camrys, especially the 4 cylinder 3SFE engine, had a problem where the coil inside the distributor would develop hairline cracks and short istself against any metal inside the distributor. This would be most noticable in wet/damp weather. I would change the rotor like DF Bonnett sugested, since it is a cheap and easy thing to do. If that doesn't solve the problem, I would then change out the coil. An aftermarket coil will work just fine.
