20MAR26 (13:30)📲Reports from Metro #Quito area⛽️🛢🧯Comments Section opinion pieces- "Hey friends, just a heads up for some reason there was a run on “extra” gasoline this morning. I’ve received a lot of reports that gas stations are only selling “super” right now. - I confirmed this at two separate Primax stations."

At this rate, the 'Super' might also run out because the stocks of Super gasoline are much lower than the Extra gasoline. The report that aviation fuel will be rationed from March 21-28 may have set it off."
See report official sources, they explain it here, it is mainly a supply chain problem and also a crude oil line broken, and then there was also a mudslide on the access road which impeded the tanker trucks from getting through..."- https://www.primicias.ec/economia/restriccion-combustibles-diesel-terminal-beaterio-petroecuador-gasolineras-quito-118408/
