Maybe only one of your plugs is duff and not fully sparking which in turn would ping up the too lean warning. Wink
Oh yeah, it's too lean by the way. The way you've written it means it's about to fall over. Laughing

I would personally buy one plug, and change it for each one in turn until the problem went away. Wink
Saves throwing away 7 perfectly serviceable spark plugs Wink

Pull one lead at a time and see if there is any difference to the running of the engine Embarassed

So first things first, you made two changes, fitting a gas conversion system and fitting new plugs. It would be unusual for new plugs to throw a running too lean code, I think that is a red herring.

Do you get the same problem running on petrol as well as LPG? If so then I suspect when you fitted the gas injection system into the manifold you ended up with an air leak into the manifold somewhere. If you only get the error when running on LPG then I would be looking at the calibration of the gas system (not familiar with your specific make so not idea how you do that bit).
