LP Engine Components Question

Hello all, I have a Gehl 4515 skid steer that currently runs on LP. Has a horizontal tank similar to what I've seen on forklifts, mounted high on the rear of the machine. Conversion looks like it was done aftermarket, as the OM doesn't say anything about LP machines.

It runs OK now, although it does have hesitation to go at full throttle until allowed to warm up for a while when cold outside.

I wanted to get some info on the components for the LP portion to know what needs routine maintenance, etc. I took a couple of pictures and labeled items that I would like some info on:

1 - Some sort of solenoid valve. Currently not hooked up to anything. (wire broken)
2 - Vaporizer?
3 - ?
4 - Controller? I don't think this is on the regular gasoline powered models.
5 - Filter?

1 Should be the solenoid valve. That lets the fuel into the system.Most likely stuck open or leaking fuel by.
2 Vaporizer unit
3 Can't see. But should be the distributor.
4 The control modual for the system.
5 I have no idea. Unless it is some sort of line filter.
 
Thanks for the info. What items need to have some periodic maintenance? I am assuming I should try to open up the filter and check the element or whatever is in there.

I will take a look to see where the solenoid valve should connect to. I would think that it would get activated by the controller.
