A quick stop at the pumps turned into a headache – and a hefty repair bill – for some drivers in Guelph, Ont.
A quick stop at the pumps turned into a headache – and a hefty repair bill – for some drivers in Guelph, Ont.
Dozens say they filled their vehicles up with bad gas at a station on Woolwich Street last Friday.
A local auto shop told CTV News that many of the cars had the same problem – contaminated fuel in the combustion engine caused their vehicles to shut down while on the road.
Brian Holstein said that very thing happened shortly after he filled up on Friday.
“The car just halted and stopped,” he explained.
Holstein had to get his vehicle towed to Norm’s Esso on Surrey Street.
Mechanic James Rooyakkers said four other drivers also dropped off their vehicles after experiencing the same problem.
