Gas station

Japanese: ガソリン・スタンド
Gas station
Gas stations primarily fill automobiles with gasoline and diesel fuel, change motor oil, sell kerosene for general fuel and other automobile-related products, and provide services such as washing automobiles and inspecting and maintaining automobiles for safe driving. Traditionally, they were called gas stations or gas stations, but in recent times, due to the wide range of business activities, they have come to be called service stations (abbreviated as SS). Gas stations are Japanese-English, and in English they are called gas station or service station.
