A contractor has been called in to take samples and evaluate the fuel. But that report is not complete yet. Experts say water in gasoline can cause problems with the cylinders, but it can also damage your fuel injectors. If the water sits in the tank over time, it can cause rust to your fuel system. The gas tanks of the cars involved will likely have to be flushed to make sure there is no more water.
