I was doing the WSJ weekend crossword puzzle yesterday; the clue was: Where dentists work and the answer was filling station.

This got me to thinking about filling station and gas station (probably petrol station in the UK.) Is there a regional difference among these three terms? Are there other generic terms for where one goes to refuel her auto? Does anyone use refueling station?
