Ya, well all this talk and I went out to clean my IAC today for giggles and a 500rpm idle the other day. Tune-up Sunday!
Hey at least I did something today! 5 mins work cough cough.. Honey I'll be working on the Rover for a couple hours!
Oddly enough, I haven’t been able to start my LPG since fixing these issues. I’m sure it’s not related but it’s a testament to ‘fix something and something more expensive needs fixing’

Go clean your IAC for giggles.. Not Gunna hurt anything..

Pretty sure after that vacuum leak for so long, things need to relearn some. And I'm sure flipping back and forth between the 2 fuels isn't such a good idea. Probably best to hit full temp and then switch. Or there's something on the LPG system that's dirty or clogged.

Well that’s sort of why I thought. Just to be sure I removed that hose that caused the air leak and tried the gas but nothing happened and I definitely did wait for the temp to be stable before trying to switch to gas as I always do. The main reason I kept switching between the fuels was because I didn’t want to flood the engine with gas. After cranking it for so long and so many times, I just wanted to get the engine going so it didn’t cause a bigger problem

Also I still don’t know where my IAC is. In this diagram it says its here but in the second one it says it’s a throttle potentiometer so I don’t know what I’m looking for
