I got unleaded gas this morning and my car started hesitating immediately afterwards. No maintenance light came on my dashboard. There was a gas truck there filling the tanks. What could be wrong with my SUV?

Hi maibenc,

Seems the gas you filled in has caused some problem.

When tankers are filling the tanks for the station tanks, they can churn up water or contaminants and this would be been pumped into your gas tank.

Always avoid filling up when the station is getting its fresh supply of gas.
