A silicone spary is better, as it don't conduct electricity, and still helps keep water out of electrics.

But yes, crook leads etc can be most of the problem.

X2 fix these first then WD40 inside the cap and Lanotec everywhere else.

rubber glove. :) put it over your dizzy, and cut the tips off the fingers for the leads to come thru. then just tape it up at the bottom and around the leads. could even use the same thing for the coil if you wanted.

Apart of any good recovery kit or wallet has a condom. Use one over the coil. If you don't use it for that you could use it for something else I guess :D

Yeap, they right at the front and low down.
I used a 4L plastic bottle cut in half, and hooked to grill.
I found gloves were a bigger pain, if they did let water in,
because then it gets trapped.
6 Mokes to Cape York in 86, never had any probs with the river crossings.
