Gm LP engine missing and large backfire on startup if fuel tank not shut off

Just started missing bad and will backfire on restart if lp tank valve not shut off.
Thinking a diaphram in the fuel system is leaking fuel into motor when shut off.
Don't know lp systems at all. Any help would be great.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
