Pemex franchise holders are notorious for being cheaters. These are the people that can fit 2.2 gallons in a 2 gallon container. They also can change the relationship between the $ and litres pumped . Some owners buy contaminated fuel. Selling Premium that is Magna is also not unusual. But really who cares if one poster is skeptical.

Again I find I am skeptical of much of this:
First of all the new electronic pumps cannot be changed for purposes of charging more for less. Most stations I have seen are using new pay at the pump models or at least the very new electronic ones.
Second the only way to mix any two fuels would be to dump the wrong fuel into the wrong tank. It happens even here in the states. But it is very rare. The drivers job would certainly be at risk for such a thing.
Third there is an electronic system that keeps track of the tanks and that system is part of the dispensing and payment system. Your average Gas station person only knows enough to read that system and pull a copy from it certainly not to hack it.
Now the above is aimed at the newer more modern stations (which are virtually everywhere now)If you choose to buy fuel from a drum or a one pump station that is 50 years old you may not get what you pay for. But those are fast disappearing.
Again post some links to third party reports from reputable sources on your contentions. ANYTHING is POSSIBLE But the Probable is another matter.
