how old are your plugs? ive got duel fuel and was told to make sure the plugs are changed religiously and not left for 100,000km or something like that. may also to pay to check your O2 sensors as a dodgy earth caused **** petrol running for me, has ur gas been serviced/tuned recently?
thx for your replies i recently got the car serviced before the exhaust but thye said they put new plugs in and all but can never be to sure
I had backfire issues with my VR (but petral was fine). It turned out to be one of the coil packs. LPG seems to need a greater voltage than petral accross the spark plug gap, and the old coil couldn't cope. Try replaceing your coil packs one at a time to see if it goes away. Mine's never backfired since (I think I replaced 3/6 coil).
