The owner is liable.

By the looks of that station it's on it's way to close.

Charging $ 1,500 is excessive. From what little of the bill I can see, they replaced the fuel pressure regulator, changed the engine oil + other stuf. In the short term, water in gas will not affect fuel system parts and not contaminate the oil. They charged him $ 150.00 for an oil change.

Can't tell people what and what not to spend their money, if the gas station owner wants to keep playing games let him dump his money on lawsuits and settlements

Black gas matters

Exactly! They do this and scim off the the gallons they give you too!

Yup, the oldest trick in the book. Garden hose in the tank

The owner is still responsible.

@@Cybersawz no the owner of the store is responsible for selling false goods

lol they don't do it on purpose. they don't upkeep their tank. they are still liable for the damages but I guarantee those tanks are messed up and the station was to cheap to fix it. That's why you never fill up when the fuel truck is there as the water on gas sits at the top.

@@RacoonT.V You do understand USTs are heavily regulated and change of ownership won't change anything. Think of someone buying a stolen car. regardless of who owns the car now.

​@@diapysik ​ @diapysik I think the biggest thing is making sure the tank is clean and dry so it minimizes the amount of water remaining in the system, especially if that fuel system has a fuel return line. That's a reason i won't work on vehicles that have been sitting a year or two with stale gas. Ethanol gas breaks down and will mess a fuel system up and even damage an engine. it'll start today and be locked up or bend valves the next time you go to start it if it's stale.

Bingo, we are supposed to stick the tank every time before dropping.

Yes but most drivers wont have water paste or even pump the rain water out of the spill buckets

What's supposed to happen after the water is discovered? Is the delivery rescheduled? Is it reported? What's the proper chain of command for this situation?

@@finally97 States have minimum tolerances on the amount of water that is acceptable in a tank. Some states have 0.5" some states have 1.5" of water that is acceptable. These tolerances are also based on the size of the tank. Anything above, fuel has to be stopped from being sold and deliveries are no longer made. A Class C certified person (Usually the store owner/manager or above are Class C) then documents this in their internal log (Which was missing at this station, according to the news report) and call their petro contractor. This Petro contractor will then pump the water out, and check where the water came into the tank from fix that leak. They will also inspect each pump to see if water is in the lines. If there is water in the line, those pumps are purged, filters inside the pump replaced, then purged, then filters are replaced again, signed and dated of when they were replaced. Then the pumps are calibrated to the correct amount of fuel dispensed according to the screen. (If screen says gallon the amount coming out of the nozzle must be a gallon not to the hose). This calibration spot gets a new wire with a metal state seal that has to be broken to be removed (In case someone wants to mess with the calibration) Most gas stations in the city have an electronic tank reader, that monitors the level of fuel and water in each tank. If water is above that tolerance level, they will start beeping loudly. The only ones that I haven't seen them in are local stores in far rural towns.

3" is pretty generous. That's a lot of water.

That was the real crime. Lol

Exactly. I'm a retired mechanic. The real thieves are the mechanics shop that is charging that much. I would have done it all for less than 500. New engine oil, fuel filter, draining the fuel tank.

Im an auto tech and the last time I had a car with water in the fuel tank it was a big headache. I did the usual repairs, drain gas tank, replace fuel filter, clean fuel lines and vehicle didn’t start. The bad fuel ended damaging the fuel pump and the spark plugs. Customer paid over 2k, now I just tell customer that we will have to start by draining gas tank and go from there.

@@iati6294 i mean you could have checked the fuel pump and spark plugs first. that should have been part of the job before you tried to run it with a half assed repair.

Not necessarily, the tanks temperature, height, weight, volume, and other things are supposed to be regulated, normally by a device, most places use Veeder Root. If they are not monitored this can cause all sort of things to happen, and in this case you got water in the tank.

She meant liable but she is still right they should be held reliable the gas is suppose to not have water in it and be a reliable gas to put in the car.

Pump systems aren't like that anymore. The pump is below ground in thestorage tank now, has been for over 3 decades. As for the device standing there on the concrete island, yeah, we call it a pump, but only in name. Used to be, each "pump" had its own pump in the bottom compartment, so if you turned on either side, the pump came to life. If 2 hoses were dispensing at a time, it went a bit slower. Now, with the actual pump down in the tank, and it's a higher volume pump, one big pump can feed fuel to several heads at one time. The only power needed at the head, would be to light up any lights in it, run the onboard computer, and serve the network that all the "pumps" are tied to the main kiosk in the building with. So if one "pump" is powered, they're all powered. That's why they put garbage bags over the hose gun to keep people from grabbing and using certain units. That said, I'm not defending these boneheads who have serious water problems in their fuels, I'm just trying to explain roughly how things work in modern filling stations.

Glad someone else noticed that lol
