Re: No Idle on 1.9dg Petrol, but fine on LPG
If it drives at revs on petrol but will not idle then l would dismiss petrol solenoid not working. However there are two sequences. LPG solenoid and petrol solenoid. Both can be easily tested and are receiving 12v and they are earthed correctly. Also check the position of the manual override switch...

Re: No Idle on 1.9dg Petrol, but fine on LPG
On petrol, are you sure it’s only on petrol? Its not unknown for dual fuel systems to run on both when they should only be on one , admittedly it normally petrol not shutting off totally and adding some petrol through on LPG , but its worth checking . Switch the lpg off and run til the engine stop...
