Just been reading an advert for a car for sale.Says it has LPG conversion but doesnt use it as there is a problem with the gas freezing above 60mph.Likely causes ? :-\

Crap coolant plumbing to the vapouriser. :y
Only option considering Propane freezes at about -40 degrees C. ;)
EDIT: Sorry - it boils at -40. I somehow doubt it's freezing, but there'll be a good layer of frost on the vapouriser suggesting it might have done. ;)

Sounds similar to the problem mine had when I first got it then Kevin.I dont remember the vapouriser icing up (although I also didnt know what it was or where it was at that time) but it used to switch back to petrol,and was found to be badly plumbed.
Shouldnt take much to sort it out then. Might just enquire further. :)

More than willing to cast an eye over it for you if needs be Albs :y
But I concur with Kevin... It's probably poorly plumbed

Havent actually seen it myself yet Paul,but if I did acquire it,I would no doubt be calling on your good self (again ::)) in your capacity as resident LPG expert. :y

i had it on my vectra lpg,factory fitted option with the koltec necam system, turned out it was a blockage in the vapouriser, good flush cured it
