I'm wondering if there is some interference from it... Cut it at the relay and seal the ends. ;) this will rule it out completely for any complications.
 
The power has been cut, it's not plugged into the old ECU, the worst i can see happening is the engine would cut out if it failed.
It disappears off into the loom so would be a nightmare to unpick. At least while it's in place is keeping connections dry and isolated.
I did think about removing it at the time but thought better of it
I know nothing about LPG installations, but does your flip flop box have any additional functions apart from shutting down the petrol ECU that maybe you are unaware of?

This is a good point kermy. The relay could be damaged or corroded, voltage transfer also....
Have the problems just occurred or have they been apparent from the start?

No i did open it up to look, I'm no expert but it looks like it just cuts power to the petrol injectors, rather than cutting the pulse from the ecu

So is it a closed circuit or open?
If you disconnect the relay and do a continuity test on those terminals(on the relay) , it will tell you if it should connected together or not..

I ran for a while with the old LPG bits unplugged and it ran fine on petrol.
The new LPG gas always been various levels of wrong so I'm sure it's a setup thing the more i think about it and the more you ask me questions about it :)

A simple thing is to go over the whole thing physically and tick it off as you go o_O
 
So what is the state of the signal that goes back to the petrol ECU?
When it's not powered up it's not sending any signals.
The new generation of lpg (which i now have) don't do any emulation which is why the petrol ecu sees real live data when it's actually running on lpg.
This is apparently better, though I'm yet to be convinced.

Hmmm, I wonder if this is more suitable to modern systems and not 20yr ideals?
 
Been doing some reading, Although it is not connected to the O2 sensor it does read it. I guess from the petrol ecu signal.

Fine-Tuning an AEB-Manufactured LPG System - Tinley Tech

How far along the tuning did you get before thinking it was all wrong?

J
It has a connection to OBD, so i assume it gets some data that way.
The first step is to run auto calibration, that completes successfully but it's way off. I've done runs on the dual carriageway to try and fine tune, that's when i saw bank 1 too rich on deceleration, bank 2 looked ok
