MY TR7 will not idle

["Byron N. Brashears" <brashears@hughes.net>]

It has been raining out west here far more than normal. I got caught out
in it last monday night. The water got into the engine compartment and I
can not get my '79 TR7 to idle. It starts with some difficulty, and will
run, I sat in it and let it reach normal temperature, that made no
difference, and it will not idle, when you release the accelerator it
dies. Any Ideas as to the cure?
