That’s fresh fuel that will be treated for weather conditions.
These Truckstops would be out of business if they sold bad fuel.
Yes haulers have made mistakes but bad fuel is something that is caught very quickly.
OP stated on one forum (or this one) that his friends fuel filters were changed on the lot before driving off!
That’s when the station should have been notified!
That’s a lesson we should all get from this , don’t leave the lot if something like this happens.
SOP if reported to a station is shutdown and test fuel. At least for the chain my wife worked for for 24 years covering 7 states at one time.
Yep that's the best bet. If your sitting on their lot blocking the pumps you get attention real fast!!! Truckers absolutely don't put up with bad fuel!
