JimD Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Associated Press is reporting that Shell and Texaco stations in New Orleans, Miami, Tampa, Sarasota and Fort Lauderdale have stopped selling (as of Friday, May 28)gasoline that has a "high sulphur" content. It is reported the gasoline came from Motiva Enterprises refinery in Norco, LA. The higher than normal sulphur may corrode electrical contact material. If I had purchased Shell or Texaco gas in those cities, I would hang on to the receipt for a few months in case a problem develops down the line. Jim Drive your car. Use your cell phone. CHOOSE ONE !
