Looks as though the water/mud got up to the level of the distributor base, once that happens you have a nice little vacuum pulling it right into the distributor cap.
Hmm. I wonder what the SPLASH GUARD is supposed to do... (where is the "duck" emoticon when you really need it?)No, the water only ever came in just under the feet, and only on entry. Once level, it was well below. I now know I am missing the splash guard
The water in the distributor must have come from someplace. I don't think it rained in there.
