Probably. It will allow moisture to enter inside the cap.
Most common cause. Bad plug wires,distributor cap and rotor, Bad plugs. I would give it a GOOD tune-up
It might but you may also have bad spark plugs/plug too. A bad distributor cap can cause it to miss too.
While an incorrect fuel/air ratio can cause a misfire, it's not likely to cause only one cylinder to misfire unless you have tuned port injection. The more likely cause is the ignition system... Distributor cap, rotor, plug wires, or spark plugs.
engine misfire. i have a '96 Chevy blazer but i don't have that problem, i was reading reviews on the car and found out that some of them do that.
It's possible if the plug wires are porous or loose or if distributor or coil got wet
A misfire on cylinder 3 in a 1996 Blazer can be caused by a faulty spark plug, fuel injector, or ignition coil specific to that cylinder. It is recommended to perform a compression test to rule out any internal engine issues and also check for vacuum leaks. Additionally, scan the vehicle's computer for any trouble codes that could pinpoint the exact cause of the misfire.
Bad plugs Wires, Distributor cap, Points if older model This is just a few things
sounds like you need to replace points ,or rotar button or distributor cap in engine
No it will not cause misfire.
Contaminated fuel could cause a misfire.
The magnetic plate in the distributor shaft, for the pick up coil, may be cracked.
