You checked the leads arent arking(sp?) against the plug walls?
Common problem on VR's, 2 of my leads are currently insulated up to stop this.
Start the engine and pop the bonnet open , leave it running until it's up to normal temp and see if it does it.You should be able to see the spark arking across the leads.
