It seems that when it's damp outside, it takes a few tries to get the engine to start.  It's even worse when it's a bit cold and damp (not unlike an early spring morning.  Its been suggested to me to replace my plugs and wires.  Any thoughts?

That would be the first things I would try! At that many miles it might need some TLC! Fuel filter would not hurt also if it has not been done.
