All a receipt proves is that you bought fuel from me on that day at that time. Big deal. :R
It does not prove you went to another station 30 minutes later and put 2 gallons of gas in the tank or went to another station one hour later and got a load of water or other contamination in your fuel.
That's the problem with fuel contamination. Usually by the time your engine stops or your HPFP takes a dump 5 more, 50 more or 500 more loads of fuel have been dropped and all of your evidence is gone. Sample my tanks all you want because the evidence is gone. Even if you did find contamination in my tanks I would argue that it was not there when "you" filled up and that is what "you" would have to prove. Good luck with that.
I said over 2 years ago that the NHTSA was more than likely not going to do anything about this. I also said that Bosch was going to quietly fix this problem and it will all go away. (Except for the people that have a first gen Bosch pump 12k bill coming to them.) :E
You and others on this site were jumping up and down saying that they WERE go to do something and two years later you're still jumping up and down saying they WILL do something. Guess what? I was right back then and I'm still right to this day, over 2 years latter.
If the NHTSA did not do anything about 3/4 of a million/ 1 billion $'s worth of junk truck engines they sure as hell are not going to do anything about a few thousand junk pumps.
The first gen CP4 pumps are the new 6.0 of pumps.
