    misfire

    a recent case was related to overheating in a coil module oddly in your case it seems to need extra heat to start working.... recheck all connections and grounding associated with coils. heat may be expanding & closing a broken or oxydized connection .

    1999 evinrude ficht rpm's increasing on it's own?

    if such is the case (leaky injector) the fault detection of the EMM would probably not flag it in the fault log. Injector leak testing would help diagnose the issue followed by proper servicing or replacement $$$ mean while maybe a clean up would help.... see video injectors...
