The premium fuel had water in it, investigators found after receiving complaints. The Department of Agriculture shut down premium and mid-grade pumps Monday, Channel 2 said.
The news station said the business is communicating with its supplier to find a solution and has pledged to cover the bills of customers who had issues because of the bad gas.
