Moisture will steal the high voltage spark from your spark plug wires. Take a look at their condition and replace accordingly. Check distributor cap and rotor too if it has one. We used to spray water on the ignition wires while it is cranking/running and look for sparks. Works best in the dark.

    It's an 04 automatic trans Nissan Frontier Crew Cab (not on trim type list) Sometimes it won't start, but when you push the shifter further into park, it starts. We suspect a sensor of some sort that...
