Castrol is carrying out a European-wide product recall of some of its two-stroke engine oil after water contaminated an oil storage tank at its plant in Italy. The recalled products, all in one litre bottles, have been on sale in workshops, stores and petrol stations from 3 September 2012. A spokesman said: “We have taken the decision to recall over 226,000 litres of the product as a precaution even though we believe only a small percentage may have been contaminated. We are currently testing some of the recalled product to check exactly where the contaminated litre bottles are.”
