Is there a Fitting/Inlet/Outlet that is missing a hose ?

I am fairly sure the VX and VY Gas systems should be the same,
May need to get hold of the Service manual for the same,
They are floating around JC's on various threads.

I don't know what brand of LPG mixer you have, but typically there is a small hose that goes to PCV and a wider hose that goes to electrically controlled valve between the mixer and converter. If it is Impco, they had extra hoses, I am not familiar where the spaghetti went.

Injector or mixer type ? One hose will be the coolant and the other gas. Take a pic. The hoses are different. There should be another for vacuum.

This is the hose I be talking about, can't fined anywhere for it to go? It is a impco lpg system. Car won't idle properly without it blocked off. Its running on petrol only as it hasn't ran on gas for years

Yes its the vacuum hose and sits under the throttle body (few inches back). It blows off quite often with backfires and will cause rough idling when not connected. The nipple can be in a different spot but I need a better photo. Take one under throttle and on each side closer. Is the plenum original to the gas system ?
