I did over 100,000 miles in a Vauxhall converted to LPG and had no problems whatsover. This was back in the 80`s when we still used to have proper winters & it always started straight away on gas no matter how cold a morning. The symptoms you describe suggest the air to gas mixture is too lean. As I recall the mixture is not adjusted at the carb as this would upset the petrol running. There was a heat exchanger plumbed into the heater pipes and this had an adjustment screw for the gas.
