My problems seems to be one I have not been able to solve the car has been to a number of garages and I still have the problem, the car has a problem running on petrol it kanagroos and the revs counter goes up and down rapidly and when you put the foot on the gas their is no power, then it surges forward, this affects the way it runs also when you switch to lpg, when using lpg and i brake the car cuts out, but then it will run ok, and then cut out every time I brake, I do not want to get rid of this car but the problem is becoming an inconvenience and I have spent a lot of money on it.

Inspect and test the idle air control valve/throttle position sensor and get back.
