Never really seen this issue before for BTCUSDT_PERP_BINANCE.

1 minute chart suddenly shows gap in price with no bar.
Change chart to 2 minute chart and the gap is filled with a bar.
Change chart to 3 minute and the gap reappears.
Change chart to 4 minute chart and the gap is filled with a bar.

Is this normal?

It would mean that the time of the gap is right at the time change between minutes. And you happen to have your bars setup such that the particular minute where this occurs is at the bar interface when using a 1 minute or 3 minute bar, but not when you are using a 2 minute or 4 minute bar (i.e. the 2 minute and 4 minute bar has that time contained within the bar itself).

If you think the gap should not be there, then try to redownload the data. Refer to the following:
Historical Intraday Data (Missing Data / Download Errors / Viewing More Data): Retrying the Download When There is Data in the Chart

If the gap persists and you still have questions about it, then you would need to check with the exchange about this.
