    I have a friend fill up a Gas Can for using on his Lawn Mower and the Mower failed after a short time, he got to thinking it may be the fuel as there was very little smell from it? he soaked a rag with it and tried setting that on fire but it would not light? he got this fuel from the other Gas Station in Valencia the one on the Bacong road just at the end of Smith Street.

    On a similar note there is a new Foreigner in Valencia named Marco that intends to start up a Mechanics workshop mostly for Cars I guess, he is waiting on his diagnostic equipment arriving from Germany he was trained in a BMW workshop, seems to be a vey nice guy, he is not really new to here but before he only did short term visits he has a wife and 3 children here plus 2 Coos, but now he is here for the long term,

    Filled up my bike (first owner, bought new last year, less than 6k km, properly maintained, no issues until now) at Total Gas Station, just down the hill from Valencia proper, and it started spitting, puttering and unable to idle after a couple kilometers. I'm not 100% sure it is bad/dirty fuel just yet but I am highly suspicious this is the issue. Careful filling up there. If anyone else has had issues I would be interested in hearing it.
