The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority had been conducting a program in the month of december by monitoring petroleum products offered for sale in the local markets with the aim of preventing motor fuel adulteration or dumping of export bound fuels.
These are the types of fuel that are always said to be destroying vehicles and motorbikes engines because of their illegal and dangerous impuritues that they contain.
EPRA therefore warned kenyans by producing a list of 19 petrol stations found with the offence of having adulterated fuel, fuel meant for export, diluted fuels, diesel containing high sulphur and also leaded premium. The list contains petrol stations from different counties and also the action taken upon them after the inspection.
Those who have been refilling from the said petrol stations are therefore adviced to halt doing so if at all they continue selling even after their pumps have been closed inorder to avoid damaging their vehicles. Motorist are only adviced to refill in the stations if only they upgrade their products.
