    Sorry to hear that but what car, what engine and what year ? Do you buy your fuel at the same place all the time or different places? If it's the same place is be starting civil proceedings or at least a small claim in the district court.

    Don't just accept what the garage tells you

    It's far far far more likely that it's another issue with the car than this mythical petrol stretching that is rampaging across the country

    What part of the country are you in ? Only a very small area in the west was affected by fuel contamination from a Wholesaler which was wrongly reported in the media as 'petrol stretching'
