Default Fuel Problems in the South of England...!

Just wondering what everyone's thought are on it...!

Is it Sabotage by some environmental group?

or
is it just dodgy contamination.?

BBC Update claims...


Quote:
Petrol retailers have insisted that their fuel is not faulty, despite hundreds of complaints that cars have broken down after leaving forecourts.

Both Tesco and Morrisons said they had carried out tests but had been unable to find any problems with their fuel.

Trading standards officials have launched an investigation after drivers in south-east England said they had been sold "contaminated" fuel.

Motorists believe they may have been sold petrol containing ethanol.

Their say their vehicles have juddered, misfired and suffered a loss of power.
