The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County rose 3.7 cents Sunday to $4.374 after increasing 10.4 cents over the past two days.
The increases stem from record low gasoline inventories and continued refinery issues, according to Jeffrey Spring of the Automobile Club of Southern California.
The average price is 14.1 cents more than one week ago, 11.6 cents higher than one month ago and 11.5 cents greater than one year ago, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service.
