Engine bogging?

My 500 seems to have an intermiten boogin problem.
It feels as thought spark is being cut from the motor. sometimes feels like one cylinder quits sometime both.

The last time it happen was sunday. i left my bike out side overnight cuase i no longer have storage. It was covered dew and im wondering if there is anything that could have been affected by this.

I know some cars are famous for the coil packs cracking when they get old then moisture can get in.
Does the 500 have a coil or something else that could be affected?

I think I replied to this in one of your other posts in another section, but:

Trace the plugwires back to the coil packs, you've got two of them...check them for problems. And look the plugwires over too for insulation, etc. The stuff is SUPPOSED to be waterproofed.... But then there are a LOT of things that aren't supposed to happen that do
