Filling station

A filling station is a facility that sells fuel and engine lubricants for motor vehicles. The most common fuels sold are gasoline and diesel fuel.

Fuel dispensers are used to pump gasoline, diesel, compressed natural gas, compressed hydrogen, hydrogen compressed natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, liquid hydrogen, kerosene, alcohol fuels, biofuels, or other types of fuel into the tanks within vehicles and calculate the financial cost of the fuel transferred to the vehicle. Besides gasoline pumps, one other significant device which is also found in filling stations and can refuel certain vehicles is an air compressor, although generally these are just used to inflate car tires.
