I copied this from the FS9 Learning Center

ENGINE COMMANDS

On multiengine aircraft, engine commands affect all engines unless you first select an engine by pressing  E + engine number (1-4). To revert back to controlling all engines,  press E + all engine numbers in quick succession (E, 1, 2, and so on).

What are you controlling the simulator with? Keyboard? Controller?

Refer to Hagar's post for the fix.

The reason it happened is probably an errant press of the 'E' key, maybe when opening/closing exits, or 'autostart' (hitting the 'E' early or late).... If the sim sees a stand alone 'E' keypress with no numbers following, it assumes engine #1 (left engine).

If you're starting from a saved flight, you should load the flight, activate 'all engines', and resave.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.
