LowTime, did some 6,000 hours on those very aircraft and from the time they were new this problem would arise from time to time. Assumed by most to be a loss of prime and never a problem on the second start attempt by getting the other engine running (if not already) and putting fuel lever to "prime" to get the recalcitrant one going.
