has it run out of gas

Lol No we thought it had so filled the tank and its still doing it..? there are lights on the gas controler when it flick onto gas its ok for about 30 seconds and then the petrol light (i think) clicks back on and it cuts out?

checked the water level?

I had the same and had the gas system serviced and all has been ok since. It needed a new valve I think.

I don't have to manually switch mine over to gas as it does it automatically the same when it runs out of gas it switches to petrol automatically.

Can't say without some sort of diagnostics, bit I would put my money on the vaporiser.

you need to set the gas system up by the sounds of it, is it a single point system?
