W203 c180 kompresor rough idle on petrol, runs fine on LPG

Hi everybody! I need help, if someone has an idea what can be the problem with my car. It is petrol engine, 143 HP, c180 kompresor. It crancks fine, but the idle is very rough and it keeps shuting down, so i need to start again.As the temp reaches 60 deg, it switch to LPG and runs very fine on 800 RPM steady. I have changed since the problem occured: spark plugs, batery, fuel filter, fuel pump, injectors, valves, the head was machined (the mechanic said to me that it has to be done to obtain the good compresion in cylinders) and i still have the same problem after two months and two diferent mechanics. Is it possible to run fine on LPG if the MAF is bad or if i have a vacuum leak somewhere?
Did someone had similar experience? What could be the problem?
thank you in advance
Aleksandar
