Default IO520 Hot start

Hi there, I just got my Cessna 340. My right engine is very difficult
to hot start. I have to crank several times. Have done the flooded
start procedure which does not work, the only thing that seems to work
is to do a normal start, bring up the throttle halfway and if the
engine catches a little bit quickly lean out the mixture. But it is a
crapshoot and takes too much effort.

Any good tips and experiences?
