The link had a lot of good information but little in the way of solutions. I was interested in his use of AC Delco cap and rotor and having the same problems. My solution maybe to buy another cap and rotor and keep it in the truck with the necessary tools.
I've read that post multiple times, I even posted in it. Anyway, my point is that those caps are notorious for failing for a variety of reasons. Keep a spare that you tested around just in case.
