The only one of those things that could even cause this would be the coil. Since your vehicle doesn't have a separate ignition module, the computer performs that duty.

You could have a bad computer or a wiring problem in that circuit. It's going to require some testing using a portable lab scope on the specific driver wires for the cylinders that aren't working to determine if the signal is being sent to the coil.
