bbc news report here http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6413357 says:

bbc news said:
Two supermarket chains at the centre of the "faulty fuel" alert have moved to stop supplies of suspect petrol.

Morrisons has stopped selling unleaded at 41 outlets supplied by the Vopak depot in Essex - at the centre of suspicions over fuel.

Tesco is to empty its unleaded petrol tanks at 150 outlets in the South East, but will refill them with new stocks and continue selling the fuel.

Tesco's own tests found "significant silicon contamination" in its fuel.

A company statement said: "These tests show evidence of some significant silicon contamination in samples taken from unleaded petrol released from the Vopak terminal around 10 days ago.


But, short of camping at one's local Tesco, how can we find out which ones are suppliied by Vopak?

It's probably this place but I doubt Tonnis or Jason would appreciate a call (though I expect they'll get a few! )
