Maybe the cable's getting hot from the exhaust and it is seizing?

Search at http://google.com for LPG conversion to get more information.

Not siezing....Many cables are plastic lined!

Get it close to heat..and whammo.. cable is stuffed.

Most accelerator cables are teflon/polyetheylene lined for smooth action.

Many cars that are missing the engine earth strap, will find the same problem with the speedo cable. The cable becomes earth, and "oh boy" it will get hot enough to melt the lining, resulting in really crap cable action..
