I can't help specifically with your problem I'm afraid, other than to say ours has a King system fitted and it very well behaved.

There will also be an overlap setting where it runs on LPG and petrol for a 1/2 second or so on changeover, if this is set low then it can cause your symptoms... |

hi thanks for that however changeover occurs when revs are over 1500 assuming engine temp is correct . mine is set to changeover on acceleration but can be changed to deceleration is your eml light on ? |

Could be leaking injectors, you switch off and they dribble petrol into the engine so when you start it, it's flooded and cuts out, then clears straight away and it's OK, leave it until it's cold and the petrol has evaporated and everything is normal again... Pete

Ah, OK, so you run on gas, switch off and it won't start, run on petrol and it does...
