Can't go straight gas on a diesel. The gas is burnt at the same time as the diesel resulting in a cleaner, more efficient burn. It isn't like a petrol/gas dual fuel system where you select which individual fuel you are going to run on.

You actually burn the Gas and diesel at the same time. EG 90% of the fuel being burned is diesel and the other 10% is the LPG (These percentages are only to clarify the explanation, I don't actually know the exact ratios used)
