It's not a coincidence that the coldest part of North America is on a more stringent scale for gas delivery. Chances are Canada was benefitting from the colder climate and getting that free cup of gas with every fill.

I don't believe those at the equator will be getting their monies worth for a very long time.

Now where the heck did you comer up with that bunk?
The oil companies work on such a large scale that a gallon here or there wouldnt even show un on the radar screen. You made that up.
Now the station owners, they might tend to be a little more careful with that drop or cup or gallon.
Anyway, the fuel in in the ground. The ground temperature is fairly consistant. It doesn't vary as much or as quickly as air temperature. The amounf of expansion is minimal.
Why get all fired up over a nothing issue?
