Common Mistakes
- ❌ पेट्रोल भरवाओ (Hindi) → ✅ पेट्रोल भरा / टँक भरा (the Marathi fill-up)
- ❌ हवा भरो → ✅ एअर चेक करा (air checking is universally called 'air' at Indian pumps)
Tip: किती दाबलं? ('how many [litres] pressed?') — the old-school question for hand-cranked pumps, still heard in villages.
