from what you are saying...I think it could be wet or damp and the heat from engine dries them and then will fire.. Sounds like you need new wires..??

Those pistons are in the back. Is the coil sparking? 531 are in the front 642 are in the rear. If you are seeing spark from coils the plug wire may not be all the way in the coils. Could be possible the wires are bad too. Also like previous statement moisture or wet areas around the coils or wires can make it spark off. Check the boot to coil, if there are any cracks or open to expose the wire it will spark off
