Seems like the right replacement would be an EQS.

That being the case I guess anything is possible, there was a case back in 2012 of a gas station that got a bad load of fuel. https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/loca...higan/1936189/

The Lucid factory is being built in Casa Grande, Arizona, about 30 minutes from where I live. It's a huge building and construction is going on 7 days a week.

Had this happen 3 years back. Station got a load of bad gas. Happened to several cars quick. Station shut down and drained its tanks. Station insurance paid for all repairs to all damaged cars.

Chubb is good.

Best of luck.

Sounds like something that happened in Birmingham here in the UK a few weeks ago, the fuel coming out of the petrol pump looked like yellow water and the pumps weren't turned off until someone recorded themself pumping it into a clear water bottle. I'll see if I can find the video tomorrow
