Distributor cap smoking

So I did a job for a client and they gave me a Mobilift SA30 really old lift. So I charged up the battery and well it started and ran great but then I parked it outside for a few days and it had rained. So now I went to charge the battery up and it started smoking from the distributor cap quite bad, so I'm a builder not a mechanic and I don't know what needs fixed or replaced to get the darn thing moving again and off site. Thanks

Fact of the week
In 1923, French tennis player René Lacoste was promised a crocodile leather suitcase by his captain if he won his next match. He lost the match but won the nickname "the crocodile" which he had sown onto his tennis attire. Ten years later he launched the first polo shirt and Lacoste, the first brand to feature a logo on its clothing.
