Water?
Well, at the prices of gas nowdays, anything is possible.. I wouldn't be surprised if the gas is water-diluted or something, lol... I've heard of this before... You add a hundred gallons of water to a few thousand-gallon tank, and you've got yourself a few hundred bucks of extra cash real fast, real easy... And hey, it's at the very least enough to pay the kid at the counter for the week - free labor. I've heard of these practices before.... And the best part is that the customer will never know the diffrence.. their cars will still burn it.
I doubt it would be done at the refinery though, it will usually be a franchise-specific thing. They can't get away with this in the winter (for obvious reasons), but in the summer anything goes.
