@macdknife:
1. Check if you have "advanced engine management" activated in the difficulty settings. Turn it off and try it again.
2. Look into your key settings. You should have a key for selecting each engine (I have them set to numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 because I don't use those keys for other purposes) and a key for engine start ("i" by default) plus a key to toggle (select/deselect) all engines ("e" in my case). If you press E to select all engines, then I for starting/stopping them, it should work.
As for your problem, IF
a) you have two of the three engines running (which would, in my experience, only be possible if you have "advanced engine management" activated) AND
b) you have "all engines" selected,
it makes perfectly sense that pressing I (start/stop engine) results in two stopped and one starting engine. I toggles the engine status. It is not like a timed light switch in a hallway where you can press the switch five times and the light still stays on
