when you run the first setup for around an hour, you're aligning the molecules (temporarily) of the capacitor just like when you make an electret. This is due to the back emf from the ignition coil being mostly voltage and aetheric whorls caused by streaming past electrons, streaming into the cap and sitting in the gaps between the capacitor molecules, like tipping a bunch of 1cm cubes (imagine they're only the north pole of a magnet) into a truck load of tennis balls, and shaking the truck. The tennis balls will re arrange. Take out all the magnets (aether whorls) and the next time you pour in more cubes, more will slip into the gaps between the tennis balls - less will pile up and fall over the edge of the truck.
However, give the tennis balls a good knock when there's no cubes, or just throw the odd cube at the tennis balls, etc, the balls will re settle into a less accommodating structure, so you will not be able to store as much charge again :-)
