(OP)
LPG burns hotter than gasoline, so do you need a higher grade or a lower grade spark? I read both advices so I'm a little bit confuse.

RE: spark plugs
Does someone have a textbook website handy to answer these questions?
Now if you asked me the diference between propane and natural gas, I could give you a confident answer immediately.

If you visit the link below, most of your questions regarding propane and gasoline temperatures, etc. will be answered.
As you will see, the peak flame temperature of propane versus gasoline is not significant. A properly selected spark plug for a gasoline fueled engine should be fine for propane as well.

RE: spark plugs
The combustion chambers are always very clean and crankcase oil contamination is generally very low.
This leads to another interesting question about lube oil specs that may not have to meet certain requirements that gasolene imposes on oil.
Agreed that plug heat ange would be very little different than gas since it is mostly a matter of heat dissapation and little to do with deposits from LPG as both fuel have no great difference in BTU content for the average engine use.
