Someone posted a website with good information already.  Preheating on
120V before trying to light it on propane helps, if it's an option for
you.  Some people have also reported an improvement after taking the flue
vent apart and using a vaccuum cleaner to suck the crud out of the flue
pipe.  (Make sure you get the vent back together right, or you'll make the
problem worse.)

I'm one of the lucky ones...my fridge lights every time with about 12
strokes of the igniter.  (It's probably actually lighting faster, but I
just keep going until I see the thermocouple LED light up.)
