Default starter problem i think

ok i just bought this car and when i try to start it it cranks. the problem is that i have to let it crank for about a minute for it to gain enough speed for the car to then start. what could it be? could it be the starter or something else? Ok i have another problem also i dont know if this could have anything to do with why it wont start. it idles rough so i starting pulling spark plug wires off one at a time while it was idling. when i got to my fourth plug wire the idle didnt drop like all the others. i know there is spark coming from it i got shocked by it. what could that be? could it be the plugs? when at idle the car blows white smoke could that be unburnt fuel or what please help. trying to get it running. so i have transportation. should i even bother or just wait about four months and drop my b16a1 in it? please help.
