Vaporizer/fuel issue

I've had this Mitsubishi for a little over a year and lately in the cold it hasn't wanted to start/run very well. I replaced the oil pressure sensor, plugs, and drained the vaporizer so far. If it starts up and I give it fuel in neutral it will idol all the way up, however, if its in forward of reverse it doesn't want to go over a 1 mph and it wont lift more than a couple hundred pounds without bogging down. the low propane light also stays on right after I replace the tank, so i don't know if its a fuel consumption issue or vaporizer or both.

The low LP light no longer stays on. I changed vaporizer however it's still running rough. The throttle body sensor make a noise when you turn key half on or off like a humming. Starting to think it's either a map, boost sensor or the throttle body assembly

May check lock off valve and filter sounds like low LP pressure into unit. The other thing is look in LP coupler make sure no seal in it sometimes the seal from the tank gets stuck in it and won't let plunger collapse fully and allow fuel to flow

zach,
on your dash display is it showing any E fault codes?

and you mentioned the LP low fuel light not turning off after you change a tank?
is the pressure switch located in-line before the vaporizer or after?

and about the vaporizer, does it have the lockoff solenoid built in or is the lockoff separate?
