My Aircooled ran well on both as does the van I have now .must just be you Jed

So your saying since you had your conversion done, when you running it on unleaded it runs worse than before?

Not mine... But I hate running on petrol as the van feels rough.... Because LPG makes it sooo smooooth.
Why not PM jed and ask him about these issues he had?

mine runs perfectly fine on both ...

My LPG set-up needs a tweaking I think as it seems to be running a bit rough on gas but not on petrol (flat spots when accelerating)

Been a while since I had Steve look over it plus I wan't him to have a look at another problem I get when I change over to petrol from LPG. As soon as I stop the van cuts out and then needs a damn good cranking to get it started again (horrible smell from exhaust) only to cut out the next time I stop. However once parked overnight the problem goes away so I think it's a fuel feed carb issue. Anyway it's been bugging me for far longer than I should of let it and it's time to ring Steve for some tlc now he's back after new year.

If i get my van (1.9 dg) converted to lpg do i still need to get my carb refurbed(no choke)?

no
the lpg system does not use the choke
