CPC to remove dye in fuel
A particular dye has been found in fuel which has caused adverse effects to motor vehicles. The dye was identified after several vehicle owners complained to the Motor Traders Association that their vehicles are undergoing technical difficulties.

The vehicles that are experiencing the difficulties are mostly new sophisticated motor cars and other vehicles.

A spokesman for the Diesel and Motor Engineering Company Limited (DIMO) told The Sunday Times that there were complaints from people regarding technical problems in their vehicles because of the dye used and therefore the matter was brought to the notice of the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC).

"The CPC has promised to remove the dye from the fuel. We were informed that it will be done soon, as the vehicles are facing technical problems" he said.
