As this started after a soaking it sounds very much like an electrical issue.
A lot of these intermittent misfire/starting problems vanish after a change of plug caps so I'd recommend you try that before anything else. Get some NGKs, part number SD05F. They're straight, not 90ยบ like the OEM ones, but they're a sensible price. Cut 4 or 5 mm off the ends of the leads before screwing them on to ensure decent contact.
