One is probably more clogged than the other.
Clean both steam wands and valve bodys, install new gaskets etc, and clean the pipe from the boiler to the valve body to inlude the connections where they come off the boiler. Shove a pick in there, I bet one has some crud built up in it.
I am not familiar with your machine specifically, but this is from what I know about other brands of commercial machines.
