Blowing out the atty and starting over will help a lot. It's already primed so a couple of drops should do it. Thicker juice helps too. 5-6 drops to prime a dry atty then 2 drops to top off. If you have thick juice you can drip less often with more drops. You'll learn your perfect sizzle sound and know when to add juice soon. It takes practice. When you get the perfect hit, hold you PV to your ear and listen as you fire. That's the sound you're after. If you're hearing a gurgling sound or the taste and vapor is off, you prolly have too much juice in your atty. Hang in there. You'll get it!
