Yeah, just get an oil that is specified as an LPG/Dual fuel oil.
Yes you can still use the petrol, but I guess you wouldnt be using it much. I agree with the above, when I get a new car I go through it and do filters, fluids, plugs and leads. At least you know THEY are OK then.

One more thing, the previous owner said i should use petrol every 3rd tank of LPG, is this true? Or can i just use LPG all the time and leave alittle petrol in the tank?

Mate up to you.
If you want to keep your injectors healthy, you need to put some fuel through them every now and again. The other side to this is you dont want fuel sitting for too long in the tank. Two of my cars (apart from the V8 Hilux) are dual fuel. They rarely get driven on petrol.
