Amber does not internally distinguish between proper and improper
dihedrals, since they both have the same functional form.

You don't say how you are adding impropers. Note that improper terms in
a prep file are ignored by LEaP, which assigns improper terms based on
topology. This could explain your results, if that is indeed what you
are doing.
