Default Misfire engine fault code

Hi,

Was off to marshal at at Prescott hill climb today and just as I arrived the engine warning light came on.

Before I left I got the obd reader on and had 4 fault codes regarding misfire on all cylinders, yet, had no loss of power at all when it first appeared.

It got me home fine and had no more lights show and pulled well.

Any ideas as to what this may be? A dodgy connection on the coil pack maybe? It can't be a loose plug or lead as it affected all four?

Thanks in advance

I've been looking through the SM I have for the 2001 WRX. No where can I find where it says which cylinder is which.

StoOopid newbie question, but can anyone clarify which cylinder is nearest to the turbo, and which is nearest to the washer bottle? I know the firing order, just not which is which! :/ lol!

Neutral switch will throw up random misfire faults when there on the way out, car will run fine though
