hmmmm, tastes like a wiring problem, if the tires are at correct inflation and has no reason to complain....how are your brakes? when your professional fitter of LPG tapped into the electrical system for the gig, must have jostled something loose-

I was lucky. My problem was a misfire of plugs and a sensor switch. It cost me $10 for a new plug and $100 deductible. I had an extended warranty. What a blessing.
