Finding Fuel
Fuel was a huge part of life before the infection and still is after the infection. You will need fuel to transport yourself around the islands in vehicles and you will need lots of it to operate airplanes and helicopters! But fuel is in short supply so be economic and get ready to fight for it sometimes.

Fuel Tanks
You can find fuel lying around in various buildings in small jerry cans (20 liter capacity) or large jerry cans (80 liter capacity). Sometimes you may find jerry cans that are empty and you will need to fill them up. You can fill up empty jerry cans at fuel tanks or at fuel tanker train cars.
Approach the tank with an empty jerry can in your inventory and select 'Fill Jerrycan' from the action menu.
After filling the jerry can you will see a message on your screen letting you know how many liters the jerry can has been filled with.
Crafting Large Jerrycans
There are also large jerry cans with a capacity of 80 liters (4 times more) than the ordinary jerry can, which makes carrying around fuel easier. You can find them lying around in buildings or you can craft your own. To craft a large jerry can you will need:
- 4x jerry can (either all 4 full or empty)
- 1x Old rope
Open your inventory and right click any of the jerry cans, then select 'Big Jerry Can (Empty)' or just 'Big Jerry Can)' depending on if you are using full or empty jerry cans. Your player will craft a big jerry can, the 4 normal ones and the old rope will disappear from your inventory and a big jerry can will be put in their place.

You will not lose the fuel if you are crafting a large jerry can from 4 full jerry cans. |
Draining Fuel
You can also drain fuel from any vehicles you find if they have any. To drain fuel from vehicles, simply approach them and select 'Fill Jerrycan' from the action menu.
