I have checked the for bare wire and didn't find anything and I'm leaning towards it being either the cam or vacuum hoses

I have another question when drove my truck yesterday and it was raining and warm out my truck didn't act up at all but It still has a little bit of a misfire but when it's cold and rainy out it runs like crap and I am going to check my distributor cap and wires and my plugs to see if it is worn but my battery in my truck could be old and I'm going to replace that as well

Well I ended up checking the distributor cap sure enough it had corrosion in the cap so replaced both cap, rotor and it runs great
