Even though you replaced the coil, it may be bad. You should test that first. If the coil is okay, it could be that the ignition wires need to be replaced.

Why doesn't 1996 vw jetta start when wet?

You might check the distributor cap - my 1997 Jetta would run very rough until I got into 2nd gear when the weather was damp or wet. I checked the distributor and not only was one of the connections loose, there was a crack in the cap. After I replaced that...it was perfect in any weather.

Where is the ignition coil on 1997 vw jetta?

Here is a photo of the ignition coil. It is in the engine compartment against the fire wall. if you find the distributor with 4 wires going to the spark plugs, follow the distributor center wire which plugs into the ignition coil. A new coil is about $150. Good Luck. Sorry, the photo didn't work. Search at "http://www.gprparts.com/OEMParts/vw.asp" for a 1997 Jetta igition coil to see the photo

96 jetta 2.0 wont start no spark no gas where do you look car sat some one took all releys from under hood they've ben replaced still nothing?

Does it sound like the car is getting compression when you turn it over? No spark may be because the distributor cap is way off. Timing could be gone. Ignition coil may need to be replaced. I would suggest searching in www.vwvortex.com in the JettaIII section or the 2.0L section and see what you can find.

The distributor is the crank sensor. If the timing belt was changed and the check engine light came on, the shaft that drives the distributor could be out of time.
