Petrol Station Closed After Filling Cars With ‘Sewer Water’
posted in Cars |
The Citgo station at the junction of East Colonial Drive and Old Cheney Highway has been closed after a number of motorists had their vehicles break down subsequent to filling their tanks with what was supposed to be premium fuel.
According to the Florida Department of Agriculture “water and/or suspended matter” was present in the fuel. The station must now get its tanks cleaned and wait for state approval before it can reactivate the pumps.
“You can see it’s mixed with sewer water or something. It is brown fluid, some type of sewer water. It smelled like a toilet,” said mechanic Tony Sarmiento, who had to repair one of the affected cars.
