Certainly sounds like it is a moisture issue, but as you have changed the cap and leads, did you check the spark plugs for moisture down around where they sit? The neoprene boots (square tops) should be a snug fit to stop moisture forming around the plugs.
Apart from that, is the engine -check light on? If so the engine may have fault codes stored. These can be analysed by a mechanic.
