TL;DR: we need a tag for shops that have pumps that sell only fuels that are
not transportation related (car/boat/plane).
Like this stand:

- There are many fuel stands that sell heating oil - * just heating oil
(kerosene)*. They look like a gasoline stand.

- I have never seen such a stand in California. This is a regional thing, but a
very common mappable object (more than 2000 in Japan?)
- Some are small stands with covered pumps, as they are only open in the
winter. They are at DIY stores that do not sell gasoline for cars.

People can buy the kerosene without going in the parent shop.
- these should not be mapped as a amenity=fuel to avoid confusion with a
standard “Gasoline stand” for cars (or boats).
- They need their own tag, like the one created.
- kerosene/paraffin needs to be added to fuel.
- Kerosene/paraffin is also a commonly sold fuel at larger gas stations in
Japan, so it should **also** be a fuel type that is sold at a standard
amenity=fuel gasoline stand.

<http://cdn.gogo.gs/images/rally/1008000049-1468612524.jpg> They do not share
the same pump islands for safety reasons.
- For shops that sell pre-measured fuel (lets say 1/3/5L oil-mixed gasoline
for gardening tools), I don’t know of a solution.

I’m jumping in because I was trying to tag a kerosene stand (UK: paraffin (?) /
灯油 in Japanse) again, and remembered seeing this thread.

The kerosene stand

The problem I am running into is that the fuel shops that I am trying to tag
**look** like a gas station - but **do not sell gasoline or diesel**. it is not
a “gas station” it is a Heating oil stand. it sells kerosene. it is outdoors.
it has pumps. some people pull their cars up to it. But they They fill tanks
of kerosene.
Most people in Japan have kerosene heaters, and they use 18/20L red plastic
tanks (metal is for gasoline) to store kerosene at their house for filling the
indoor kerosene heaters. This is how consumers buy fuel to take home. the DIY
shop sells the tanks and the heaters,

<http://blog-imgs-44.fc2.com/o/s/h/oshiken2/6011701.jpg> ) and the pumps
outside sell you the kerosene. I bring 5-6 tanks to the stand every couple
months.
There is a MASSIVE infrastructure for kerosene distribution in Japan. most DIY
or home stores have a “kerosene stand” for selling only kerosene for heating.
they have pump(s) like you would have for gasoline used to fill those tanks,
but are in a small building to close off the pump in the summer.
we use 400-600L a winter, so the kerosene stand is always busy with people
carrying 2-4 tanks. Some people bring 10-20.
These stands also are a part of larger Gasoline stands. Just like a Gasoline
stand that sells Propane, LNG, and/or hydrogen, there is a special pump stand
off to the side (far away from the gasoline pumps, as gasoline in a kerosene
heater is a bomb), usually with a metal stand for you to set your tanks. This
is a common sight at larger gas stations.

This is the gasoline stand where I get Gasoline every week. It also has a
kerosene pump off to the left. Main gas pumps on the right. note the little red
stand for you to set your red tanks, and the red tanks for sale, bundled up on
the left. a metro gas station in a warmer city may not sell kerosene. The photo
for “amenity=fuel” wiki page is a gas station in Hiroshima.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/images/d/d7/Gas_Station_Hiroshima.jpg
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/images/d/d7/Gas_Station_Hiroshima.jpg>. they
don’t have a kerosene pump, so it is not something that is at every gas station
in Japan has (like 87 octane regular gas), but it very common in my region.
Joyful Honda is a DIY superstore, and they have gasoline stands (Joyful Speed
Station) that sell 87/92 gasoline and Diesel. Then there are separate,
unrelated kerosene stands (灯油). The Joyful near me - the one I am trying to
map - has both, with the gasoline stand 200m away from the kerosene stand on
the other side of the paking lot.
you can see images of a typical gas station and a typical kerosene stand on
their gasoline web site. you do not need to read Japanese to understand, beyond
seeing the giant 灯油 symbol.
