you can do it yourself, it's quite easy... All you really need is a few tools and about an hour or so...
Do one plug and one wire at a time, making sure you place the wires in the right order, otherwise it won't work at all. Go to any auto store, and ask what the firing order is, to be on the safe side. They will most likely draw it out for you, then follow the diagram...

Denser air occurs on rainy days, which means more oxygen. If your car doesn't have a good mass air flow sensor, then it may not be telling the car to supply it more fuel based on the higher levels of oxygen on rainy day. So you have more oxygen, but the same amount of fuel. Your car engine makes explosions and on a rainy day you are exploding more air in the same space. Basically you are compressing more stuff basically in the same area, but the explosion isn't quite as big because you have more stuff (more oxygen/with no more fuel) in the area same contained area so it takes more strength away from your engine because you have the same size explosion, but more stuff in there that isn't exploding. If your sensors that help control fuel and air delivery to your engine were working correctly, it would tell it to add more fuel, giving it even more stuff even yet. You already have the more oxygen because it's a rainy day and then your car should add more fuel accordingly. Then you would have a bigger explosion and more stuff(more fuel and more oxygen). Now you would find yourself having more power on rainy days if your car was running properly. There are many other factors besides just your mass air flow sensor that could be causing this. Your mass air flow sensor is usually right after your air filter box. Sometimes the can be cleaned sometimes they need to be replaced.Do I have a blown head gasket?
