Pick a warm dry day, then get a spray bottle of water. Put on mist setting, then spray different components in engine area. I do I all the time. Its probably old and cracked wires around your plugs shorting out. Just b careful where u put or hands, lol. Hope that helps my friend. Let us know what u find!
