I have a 96 VW Jetta and it hesitates to start especially in rainy weather plus it hesitates periodically in low gear and I would like to know if a new rotor and cap would fix this after changing the spark plugs with no luck or should I focus on the fuel system?

I have a 2000 Ford Crown Vic that has periodic idling problems. It happens about every 2 weeks. Right when I turn the key I know whether its going to be a problem or not. If it is acting up I have to give it gas or it will cut out. A lot of times if I wait a few minutes and try again it will be fine. Lately its been taking longer than a few minutes.
