In America “gas” is short for gasoline, which is petrol.
It’s still shit because our lazy asses do still call both types “gas”, but there is a distinction.

It is not. “Gasoline” is what Brits should call the substance they put into their vehicles. Petroleum is not what goes in them, that is just an unrefined version of gasoline.
Edit: Petroleum, not patroleum.
