I'm wondering if the LPG ECM doesn't spoof an o2 sensor signal during LPG operation to prevent unwarranted DTCs. That would explain the need to run the LPG electronics in series.
An internal disconnect type of system? (signal passes through in petrol mode. In LPG, it is interrupted and a dummy signal gets sent to the Petrol pcm to keep it happy.) :dunno:
If the LPG ECM is spoofing the Petrol PCM in LPG mode, then the problem may be in the spoofing process itself. But that only answers the Petrol PCM O2 data problem while running on LPG. Neither explains the excess use of LPG.
But if the LPG ECM is getting biased data from the O2 sensor (and the Petrol PCM is getting accurate data), due to excess wire/connector resistance (like a extra few ohms) in the LPG ECM contacts, that would explain the LPGs poor MGPs, and the petrol PCMs reported fuel trim problems.
