HI!you can also say: "il pieno, per favore". It's shorter but not less formal than the above expressions.I usually spend 20 euros a week and noticed that they don't clean the screen under this amount :(  Here's some related expressions that you may use in Italy:

  • Replying to the question "Dove vai? / Where are you going?" you could answer: "Vado a far benzina / I'm going to fill it up"
  • If you notice that your car is running out of petrol: "Sono in riserva / I'm running on an empty car"
  • In an unluckily situation: "se non faccio benzina subito, rimango a piedi" / If I don't fill it up immediately I may be left on foot!"

Mi raccomando, fate sempre benzina!! :)
