If you enjoy driving cars around theFortnitemap, you’ll likely be more than familiar with running out of gas and traveling on foot until you find another vehicle. Visiting a gas station lets you refuel your car using their fuel pumps, allowing you to keep driving a little longer.
How to find gas stations and fuel pumps in Fortnite
There are 26 fuel pumps spread around six main gas stations inFortniteChapter 6, Season 1, primarily around Burd and Brutal Boxcars. Other named landmarks like Twinkle Terrace and Shining Span have stations nearby, giving you several locations to visit, depending on the Battle Bus’ travel direction. Below is a map of every gas station and fuel pump location.
Almost every major gas station also has acar spawnfor you to grab if your current one is low health. That way, you can quickly refuel and head out or swap out your car for an improved version. Sometimes, you may have a weekly or event quest asking you to visit a gas station and refuel your vehicle, allowing you to knock out this objective and get some quick and easy XP.
How to refuel your car in Fortnite
In previous seasons, refueling your car required interacting with a gas pump and bringing the nozzle to your vehicle. As you held your attack button toward the car with the gas nozzle, your fuel percentage rose until it reached 100 percent. Nowadays, refueling only requires driving your car onto a platform and waiting for your health and fuel to replenish.
Just be careful, as anyone can come in during this time and damage you, your car, or the nearby pumps, creating dangerous explosions. While the pump restores some car health, it can’t quite withstand burst damage or explosions.
How to blow up a fuel pump in Fortnite
Alternatively, you can blow up the fuel pumps yourself if you need to finish some quests, create strategic damage sources, or get up to some mischief by damaging them. Every fuel pump has a health bar and will explode once it reaches zero. Watch your positioning while damaging it, as it can easily hurt you and drain your shields and health.
