I went to GA and it was raining, and the road was really soaked with water and eventually my truck started stalling and i pulled over, and if i gave it more gas it would stall, but if i let off it would run fine, and also my check engine light usually stays on but when it happens it makes the light go off, somebody told me that a distribitor cap can do that, but i am wondering could it be something else?

Be careful because going through a large amount of water can crack your engine block.

You may be due for a new cap,rotor,and plug wires. Gotta keep the electricity from finding its way to ground thru the moisture. Try it,it'll work.

Unless you are prepared (sealed and snorkeled) for deep-water driving , go slow through puddles and such....when water gets on/into your distributor , you WILL stall.....(sometimes even when sealed water condensates inside cap from temp. differences )
