Tainted gas sold at some gas stations

WISCONSIN (CBS 58) – Our gas tanks could be filled with tainted fuel.

If you stopped in western Wisconsin, parts of Minnesota or Iowa over the weekend, you’re at risk.

Minnesota officials say dozens of gas stations received the tainted gasoline.

The company says a malfunction resulted in some diesel fuel being added to the mix.

Many of the stations affected are Kwik Trips. They stopped selling the fuel as soon as they found out.

“It’s a small percentage of diesel that was distributed into those tanks and you would know it in your vehicle if you have any knocking or pinging. If that’s the case, you probably have some of that tainted fuel,” says a spokesperson for Kwik Trip, John McHugh.

Mechanics say one tank of gas probably won’t damage your engine but continued use of it could.

See below for a full list of the stations that received the tainted fuel:
