Exclamation Rpm problem

I have a 1997 dodge ram 1500 it runs on lpg and gas and it has a weird problem lately.
when i am driving and coming to a stop it won't go under 1250 rpm for some reason so it doesn't really wanna stop i think its a vacuum problem because i drive on lpg most of the time and it is really sensitive on that kinde stuff.
But cant find any leaks.
Had this problem bout 6 monds ago and when i tried to fix it the problem was gone nothing thil a few days ago.
So if there is any one that nows how to fix this i could use a helping hand

Getting any codes? Cleaned the throttle body lately? Pintle on IAC may not be able to close off properly. Check that first. Aside from that, gotta be a vacuum leak somewhere. Checked the INSIDE of the plenum??

I think so..... Isn't it just a gas manifold above the throttle body, or some such??? Never had to work on one. At least, not in the last 30 years or so.
