Just a WAG, but, with one cylinder open to the atmosphere, just enough 
air was getting to the other cylinders via the nearby runner and the 
balance tube to light off the residual fuel in those cylinders.  
Wouldn't run great, but would run.

Now, the "inquiring minds want to know" part, why would it start when one
plug was removed?

Just a WAG, but, with one cylinder open to the atmosphere, just enough air
was getting to the other cylinders via the nearby runner and the balance
tube to light off the residual fuel in those cylinders.  Wouldn't run great,
but would run.

Cheers.

just a suggestion.  Might want to take a very light grit sandpaper to the c=

Easy enough to check.  Just remove the chamber and piston assembly and move=
 them upon and down listening and feeling for any "catch" points.  If  you =
feel minor grinding, the assembly is not moving smoothly enough.
