Discussion:
Slow idle at startup then surges up to normal idle

Hi everyone, I am hoping that someone may be able to help me out on a problem with my truck.
I have a Mitsubishi FGC25K with a FG63 engine on LP.
When I came into this truck it had a blown head gasket. I did the repair on that, and now have another issue that arose after I put it all back together.
When I start the engine it idles very slowly, almost as if it is going to die out, then surges up in RPM, then drops off to its normal idle. I took a video of the problem so that there is an audio element to my question.
Any ideas where to start with this? The engine did not do this until I did the head gasket repair.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Here is the link to the video:

Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
