DO NOT BUY SAFEWAY GAS...EVER!!
Very unlikely......
Most retailers purchase gas from local distributors called jobbers.
Most of the jobbers load their fuel from the same terminals as everyone else.
Until you scan the computer, you will never know WHY the CEL came on. To attribute it to a single gasoline purchase is not logical. It might have been an issue as simple as YOU not tightening the gas cap enough because of that super-sized soft drink in your hand or whatever.
Go get your codes scanned and see what the computer said was wrong...
