Default Warning!! Bad gas in lake charles!!!
My wife was left stranded on the side of 210 yesterday during the rain after she tanked up at the Smokers Express Citgo on 3501 hwy 14 in lake charles yesterday. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer in lafayette. We took a fuel sample and it was 80% water and only 20% fuel.

Gonna ask a dumb question here...Have you contacted the location that sold it to you? If so, are they gonna take care of you on this matter?

That's a lot of dang water!

I just hope they've quit selling gas until they get this straightened out! I'd venture to guess that this was a quick intrusion of water and, they were unaware of the problem...I hope they weren't aware of it anyway!

Hopefully they handle up on the repair without a bunch of bs.

rig rat just a little fyi my grandma bought gas from lakeveiw in longville thats between ragley and deridder about a month ago and she went two miles and it would not go any more it was almost straight water.So i went raising cane and they paid for everything she needed. There was seven or eight cars broke down in a fifteen period over that. I even got them to pay for the spark plugs because they can foul from it. It can do a lot of damage...
