Can't get it started gonna put a weber on

Hello guys hope you can please help.Just bought a 1998 Samsung sf15 lpg forklift.Started fine when I bought it but had a overheating engine (suspect head gasket ).was running for a bit then went bang hose split.So new top hose film with coolant.Now won't start.Read a few forums and I don't have any experience with lpg.So I've checked compression pretty good for an oldie,got spark but suspect fuel(gas,).Tried between bottle and lock off got gas.When I press vaporiser button get gas through to the big pipe that goes to the mixer.Mixer is a impco 100 opened up.Top diaphragm is good,and when I push button on vaporiser I get it going into mixer.So why is it not firing ?
Gonna put a tank and a weber if I can't get it working lol
