Station Sold Gas Mixed with Water



A Rising Sun Gas Station in Crescentville, Penn just outside Phila. sold regular gas for $2.23 per gallon; the station across the street sold regular for $2.49 per gallon. Shortly after several dozen motorists pulled out of the station and down the road their cars stalled out. When the gas the station sold was tested, the results yielded that the gas was mixed with water.

The station manager claimed that he had bought the gas from one distributor that had sold it to him at a price of only two cents per gallon above cost. Police and inspectors are investigating.

Meanwhile the affected motorists are stuck with tow truck bills are have gotten no success with having either the gas station manager or the distributor pay for the costs.
