The easiest way to encounter low-quality fuel is at a gas station where the owners do not pay attention to the design and condition of the equipment. Gas stations where fuel is much cheaper than surrounding gas stations are also suspect. Igor Morzharetto, partner of the Autostat analytical agency, told socialbites.ca.
“Of course, you also need to pay attention to the appearance of the gas station. If they have rusty dispensers, you probably don’t need to refill them. In extreme cases, you can fill up 10 liters to go to a regular gas station,” said Morzharetto.
In addition, reasonable doubts about the quality of fuel arise from the fact that its price is different from surrounding gas stations. The expert added that if gasoline at the gas station is cheaper by 3-5 rubles per liter, it is better not to bother with it.
“I recommend refueling only at chain gas stations belonging to vertically integrated oil companies or large local chains located in each region,” Morzharetto said.
