This is not a bug, this is what would happen in the game. There are several other closed tickets about this same thing and a section on the discord FAQ. What is happening is that the turbo fuel requires a specific ratio of inputs and your crude oil conversions give out a specific ratio of outputs and these ratios do not match perfectly, so one side is going to get backed up, causing the other side to produce less, which furthers the backup into a feedback loop that causes everything to come to a grinding hault. This is what would happen in game if you built this. You need to either inject more resources or allow an overflow of resources so they do not get backed up. In this case it looks like you produce more canisters than you can use causing the backup along the plastic line. Give a spot for that extra plastic to end up.
