Bad Fuel?

[ky_r33]

Hey ppls, just wondering if anyone has had bad fuel before and what happened to their car. I think I have gotten bad fuel twice from the same place within a few months, the problem is, how do i prove it??

I only use the same Mobil in my area and have all reciepts. Twice when me car was close to empty, i filled up completly then a few days later my car would stall whenever at idol and wouldn't run smooth and feel like its pulling back... the first time it happened i used the tank of fuel quickly, put octane boost in then re filled it and got a tune and service and it was all good... Some ppl are saying that the crank angle sensor may be going, hope this isnt the case. Would take it straight to my mechanic but i dont have the time at the moment cos of work... Any way, i am now half way thro the tank of fuel and it has stopped and is running fine, but its still worrying me cos i shouldnt act like that 4 on reason....

Sounds like a bad batch of fuel to me. It happends, if you've got it from the same place twice, I'd think about filling up elsewhere. I don't think you have much to worry about.

Change your filter & don't buy fuel there again.........

It could also be the fact that you ran the tank nearly dry so it awas picking up the shit left at the bottom.... but yeah pretty much what they said change fuel filters and go to a bp
