Answer
Hi Shawn,
Any place where electricity can escape is a possible cause. Look at the distributor cap closely for any signs of a crack in the case, yes. Also, try looking at the engine when it is running on a dark rainy or humid night to look for any sign of electrical arcs such as at the distributor cap or along the spark plug wires themselves and the wire from the spark coil to the distributor. Wires as they age can leak as well. Replace anything that shows such arcs. But do it in the dark so you can see the arcing.
Please read the PS below and respond to it.
Thanks,
Roland
