How?

The English wiki seems to indicate that there is no way to represent 
different levels of service at this time:

| Add the opening hours using the key opening_hours=*. There are not 
| agreed upon tags for different levels of service, but both 
| self_service=yes/no and full_service=yes/no and automated=yes/no have 
| been used.

Note that there is no way to correlate self_service, full_service and 
automated with opening_hours.

Most people only care that they can go and get fuel at any time. So this 
information needs to be preserved somehow.

I would also note that not all stations have 24/7 automats, particularly 
for those in car repair shops. Nobody wants to make a 4 kilometers 
detour just to find that they cannot get fuel because it's 7 pm or a 
week-end. So if only one information can be preserved I would say it's 
the 24/7 one.
