Default 1998 disco V8i converted to Lpg and wont Idle

I have a 1998 disco V8i i have just converted her to LPG but now with the pod filter installed i cant get her to Idle. It will bounce on the revs at idle between cutting out and 750rpm. i have tried to adjust the idle on the LPG mixer which is still not good when warm but very hard to start on cold and mostly cuts out please help.

That is a tough one, we dont run LPG here in the US.
Sorry to say but you may need to take it to a mechanic who is familiar with LPG carbs.

is your tank full? once an LP tank gets down to 1/3 theres not enough pressure for the engine to run correctly. one stupid thing I hate about LPG set-ups.

Is that true on cars? I know on forklifts you can run them until the engine quits, install a new tank and BAM!, up and running again.
Just asking because I dont know.
