Other Water in ebox?

[bmock50]

I'm chasing a gremlin in my blaster. It seems that once something gets wet it starts sputtering and cutting out only on the top end. I pulled the ebox on my blaster to change the coil and there was a good amount of water in it. What's confusing me is I cant seem to find how water would get in there? The seal looks decent and I tightened the screws as much as possible. Is this common or is there anything else to check?

The grommets can leak a bit, especially around the battery and starter cables. Was the cap screwed on tight?

Does it look like it was in there for awhile?

The cap is tight. How can I seal the grommets? I wouldn't think they would leake enough to cause problems but who knows.

Some of the screws show a little surface rust but other than that I can't tell.
