--- Comment #2 from Jack <ostroffjh at users.sourceforge.net> ---
First, as a matter of terminology, all transactions have splits (most commonly
two of them.)  One is for the account the money is moving into or out of, the
other is the category.  Internally, KMyMoney treats Categories as a special
type of Account.
Your description says you already changed the Category in one transaction from
Gas to Fuel.  Did you look at the Category View to see if some other
transaction still has Gas as the Category?
When you successfully deleted the Category using a 5.1 version, did it prompt
you for another Category to assign the transactions to?  KMyMOney does not have
an explicit option to merge categories, just to delete one, and if any
transactions refer to that category, it prompts the user for a different
category to assign transactions which point to the one you are deleting.  I'm
fairly sure that has not changed between 5.1.3 and master. 
Please us a backup copy of your data to try again with the Developer version,
to confirm the problem is repeatable.  If it is, we can then see if the problem
remains if you create an anonymized version of the data, so the developers can
confirm the problem.
Thanks.
