The angle I am going to suggest is this:(Maybe)
It starts with one plug out because it turns over faster and the heat of compression stays in the cylinder lond enough to ignite the mixture.
The engine has a fault that is causing it not to start with slower RPM. Do you think the cranking RPM's are the same as allways or a bit slower?
Do you have a tack to put on it.
Another theory would be that when the plug is out and you crank the engine that it is not making contact to ground and directing all the spark energy to the other plugs. In you car at nite if you make sure it is pitch black, look at how the plug wires have a glow around them at places. Stop the engine. Now remove 1 spark wire and start the engine again and notice that the wires are glowing more now that the wire is disconected. More electrical energy is available at the other plugs. Maybe try and keep the plugs in and just remove 1 wire and see if it will start.
There is a problem and I am just tring to give you some ideas as to why an engine would start with a plug removed and not start with it in.
Good luck and please reply if you find the problem. It is interesting.
