    Safety check $25
    Noelle Y.

    I always come to this place for safety check. My receipt says Klassic Automotive. It's the Texaco in School Street. You should call to make an appointment. They do take walks ins it seems though. We went without an appointment and waited about 15 minutes. He's so quick and efficient though. We were in and out in no time. Cost was $25, which I'm not sure how that compares to other places but I think it's great. I will keep coming here for my safety check as long as they're still here.

    The best safety check station in town!
    Stef H.

    I not only love this gas station as it's convenient to stop in and grab snacks before jumping on H1 but the staff inside are always so lovely and happy when they engage their customers. Even better was my experience with Keith at Klassic Automotive for my safety check. He guided me through the entire registration process for my vehicle, let me strip the tint off my front door windows in his shop, told me what the easiest DMV location would be to get my new plates and helped me put my safety check clip bar on correctly when I returned. I haven't even mentioned how inexpensive the safety check process was ($26 and some change!), and what a great value from service to customer service. He even took a look at my brakes for me and was honest about what I was experiencing, making me feel less worried. I will definitely return when I am due for brake service. HIGHLY recommend Klassic Automotive in the Texaco station. Thank you Keith! You are AWESOME!

    Trigger lock!

Buy 8 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline at this HELE and get one All-American Footlong Sandwich on Friday, January 16, 2026 at any Safeway on Oahu .... FREE!! Buy 10 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline at this HELE and get one garlic chicken musubi and two pork hash at 7-Eleven .... FREE!! Buy 15 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline and fill the tank of your Toyota 4-Runner and get an 18" pepperoni pizza, a hot dog and drink at Costco ..... FREE!!! I know all of you are thinking .... "What's the catch?" I'm not exactly sure why, but the Hele Gas Station/Convenience Store on Vineyard Boulevard and Palama Street has, for the last two weeks, been selling regular, unleaded gasoline for $3.899/gal. and $3.799/gal. with Hele Kamaaina Card and payment in cash. There are 12 fuel pumping stations selling regular unleaded gas at this Hele. With that sald, all the Plus and Premium pumps are out of order. You can only buy regular unleaded and diesel at this Hele, for now. For your information, the Hele on South King, a block before Straub Hospital and the Hele on South King just past Kalakaua Avenue sells regular unleaded for $4.599/gal. The Cosmo Yajima Service Station on South King and Keeaumoku sells regular unleaded for $4.599/gal. The Shell on Beretania and Keeaumoku sells regular unleaded for $4.599/gal. The Texaco on Beretania and Keeaumoku sells regular unleaded for $4.599/gal. The difference in cost and savings between buying regular unleaded at this Hele and the Cosmo Yajima Service Station, the Shell, Texaco and the two other Hele Gas Station/Convenient Stores is $4.60/gal. - $3.90/gal. = $.70/gal. and $4.60/gal. - $3.80/gal. = $.80/gal with Hele Kamaaina Card and paying in cash. So this morning, I buy 8 gallons of regular unleaded, using my Hele Kamaaina Card and pay in cash = $3.80/gal.; which is $.80/gal. X 8 gallons = $5.60 savings at this Hele. I then go to the Safeway on Beretania and used $5.21 of my $5.60 savings and buy a $5.00, All American Footlong Sandwich. It's like me getting my All-American footlong sandwich for FREE, because I bought 8 gallons of regular unleaded at this Hele .... right?? My GF has a Toyota 4-Runner and I told her: "Honey! You should "Hele on Down" (Insert smiley face emoji here) and take advantage of the $3.80/gal. regular unleaded gas at the Hele on Vineyard and top off your tank because regular unleaded is $4.60/gal. everywhere else. Your 4-Runner takes 15 gallons of regular unleaded so this will be a pretty big savings. 15 gallons X $.80/gal. equals a $12.00 savings. You can than buy an 18" pizza, a hot dog and drink at Costco with your $12.00 gas saving. It's like getting an 18" pizza, a hot dog and drink FREE!!, when you fill up at this Hele." GF: "Wow! What a great idea and deal honey! I got something to do now. Can you take my keys, fill up my tank and go down to Costco and get an 18" pepperoni pizza, hot dog and a Diet Coke for me?" (Insert sly, salivating face emoji here) Me: "Why sure honey. I'll be right back." I drive her 4-Runner to the Hele and fill up her tank. Sure enough, 15 gallons X $3.80 = $57.00 which would have been $69.00 at the other Hele's, the Shell, Texaco and Cosmo. $69.00 - $57.00 = $12.00 savings. I then drive to the Costco in Iwilei and pickup her pepperoni pizza, hot dog and Diet Coke and head to her place. Me: "Honey! ..... Honey! I'm here!" GF: "Yawn .... Back already! I was taking a nap! ....Yawn!" Me: "Huuh!! Here's your keys, the 18" pepperoni pizza, hot dog and drink. The gas was $57.00 and the pizza, hot dog and drink came out to $12.03." GF: "Yawn! Gee thanks honey. You're the best! Let's eat!" (Insert happy face emoji here) Me: Five minutes later ....... Foot tap tap tap tap tapping!!!!! "Women are very cunning!!" (Insert crying face emoji here) P.S. The savings for the gas was $.80/gal. at this Hele and a fantastic deal. But from my perspective, the 18" pizza, hot dog and drink ended up being a $69.03 out of pocket cost to me. This turned out to be the most expensive pizza, hot dog and diet coke I ever purchased in my life!!

    Every penny counts…read more.. At the price of gas I've never seen Hele get more crowded than the usual Costco as they do offer Kama'aina the deals when you use their app and pay with cash. I was told that this Vineyard location was well priced and after done with my errands close by decided to give them a peek and was surprised to see that it was $5.39 and for sure went in to top my tank off. Once I approached the pump was disappointed to see that it was actually $5.49 a huge difference and that I didn't have much cash on hand didn't want to pay that price and left disappointed. Though if you used the app it does bring it down to $5.24 but it had to be with cash and it just wasn't worth it for me personally and left disappointed. This corner location is quite busy and that many have done the math to work it into their budget and with places like this thankfully we're still able to get on with our day. Thank you!

It comes in different flavors and features a different rapper on each bag. This is the only place on the island that I've seen it. We also got a bag of cookies, donut holes and a can of soda. I also saw ready to eat hot items such as nachos, spam musubi, manapua and pork hash. I was tempted to more items, but those snacks were good enough. Make sure to pick up a snack if you're here getting gas.

It's about 2 cents less than Costco! I read Bruddah Fran s review for Hele Gasoline... 5-stars... must be a legit place, right? Gotta try it out! I parked at pump #5 and saw that the price was $4.31 per gallon - that must be the credit card price? I went inside the convenience store to pre-pay. I showed the bar code on the Hele Rewards app and got $4.06 per gallon! (The app gives 25 cents per gallon discount!) Wow! After I filled my tank, I went back inside the store to get my change! The cashier said that the balance will go back to my credit card... yay! Note: There are two pumps at each of the four lines. LOCATION: corner of Dillingham Boulevard and McNeil Street, next to the original Popeye's Chicken (which is currently closed) and diagonal from Kalihi Kai Elementary School

They are number ONE in addressing your requirements for repairs to a flat tire. If you require flat tire service and your emergency is either in the Nuuanu/Pauoa area or you live in the neighborhood go to this service bay with your needs. I had the compartment light in my car give me trouble and they serviced me, not sure about pricing, but service is unparalleled. I especially like giving business to "local" vendors whom I trust. Jun appears to be the owner or manager of the service repair operations. It is my understanding that the service repair area is sublet from Richard Chevron. I do find the cashier operation which services the gas station/towing and the service repair more than adequate. If you need to check tire pressure be sure to purchase gas before being given the key to the air/water station and you must leave your drivers license.

Still convenient in location, Still their convenience store is really that of convenience (no frills, just you water, soda and chips type product). Still one of the more expensive places in town. As of today, gas is $ 5.69 regular. $ 5.99 premium, $ 6.29 power premium Bottom line is if you drive, you need gas and you may not find it practical to drive $20 miles round trip to get gas at about $.50 less per gallon. Not sure... stand by I will let you know. I need to do the math now.

Sometimes there's a guy that knows you want to use the car wash but he goes really fast, parks his car right outside the wash, takes his sweet time to walk and talk to the people in the booth. Then he slowly walks to the car, waits for I dunno - a few minutes. Then slowly goes in. When his wash is finished, he waits until the entire car was turns off then he slowly moves out. All of this before 6am in the morning. Good morning to all! But then it's my turn. I pay $20, get the ceramic coating etc... etc... and in the end, they fix the problem with the car ripping off my back wiper. They fixed it! Because it didn't wash half of the back of my car. Oh well..... So..... would you take this car wash which is the closest to your house? OR drive to Waipio for a 1 min 48 sec car wash for the same price? Choices.......

My sister and I went out today and I said I need to check Yelp for a nearby car wash. Lo and behold, this Texaco car wash place popped up. I read a few reviews and I decided to try it out. There was about four cars ahead of me. The reviews warned us about the wait time. There is wait that depends on the type of car wash package you select. I estimated @10-15 minutes per car. I didn't know where to pay and I asked my sister to run into the convenience store to check if I needed to pay first. You can pay inside and you will receive a receipt with a code that you enter into a machine that is located near the entrance of the car wash. Or you can pay at the machine as well. Your choice. Pay attention to the instructions and lighted signs! It will guide you into the automatic car wash with ease. It's pretty loud inside so be prepared! Pricing is really great at $10 for the basic- Deluxe Wash, $14 for the premium wash, $17 for the ultimate wash, and $20 for Ceramic shine. See photo for more information. It's an automatic car wash , so be prepared to wipe down your car with a towel after you exit and find a place to park. The dryer doesn't get every spot. If you want air for your tires, vacuum, or water, it will cost you. Bring your coins. Appeared that some features are broken. Overall, a good experience for my old and now cleaned up car!
