it could happen to anyone! a 4 in your corner investigation discovers watered down gas at a local

gas station this week. and now experts say it could happen more now ... than any

other time of the year! thank you for watching fox 4 news at 10, i'm amy wegmann. 4 in your corner's michael cadigan is looking into how

you can steer clear of pain at the pump. amy.. 4 in your corner spoke with a mechanic tonight who says.... watered down gas happens enough that it should be on every

driver's radar.. 0:23-0:27 0:49-1:03 you pay more than 2 dollars a gallon for gas.. not this mixture of water and gas swriling around in this water bottle.

shea louis, port charlotte "my car still has two cups of water in the tank." this southwest florida woman says she bought watered-down gas from this sunoco gas station on the

corner of burnt store road and us 41.. some drivers worried after discovering this fuel fiasco. nicholas brienza, lehigh acres "definitely a concern now. i don't want to spend

a bunch of money to fixing my car because there is water in the engine." nats car rising on lift terry wynter owns his own car repair business. he says it's not the first time or last time watered-

day before and you didn't know about it. water is in the tank, it's being pumped out, and everyone who bought gas the last 45 mins to an hour is calling back." you'll notice these sounds..

terry wynter "sputtering, backfiring, stuttering." in about 3 to 5 miles after riding away.. there are no warning signs for you until the "check engine light" pops up on your dash.

terry wynter, "you can't tell until you drive away, there's no way of knowing, it's impossible, no one is that good." the first call you should make should to be where you bought the gas

from.. wynter says not doing that might cost you hundreds of dollars. terry wynter,"protect yourself on this, don't take it upon yourself to get the car fixed and then trying to recoup your loss on this

because the chance of it happening are slim." i gave the repair company that was at the sunoco gas station a call to see where they were at with repairs. they told me they drained

the remaining water from the tanks. and will be back out there saturday morning to make
