Don't think so, I have not found a fuel can in the game so far.

Shoot an 'enemy' sitting in (or driving) a car - then you can drive their car. Don't forget to transfer the boot luggage though!

I refuel my car/heli when I'm very low on fuel. I usually start looking for a gas station when I got about 15 fuel. Because no matter how much you need you always pay the same price. Never ran out of fuel.

It does work, if you hold down W and Z you go forward without the engine running. I suppose you have left a nice car behind you wanted to keep you could try ramming it to a gas station with another car.

"I refuel my car/heli when I'm very low on fuel"

And that really helps answer Natalija's question :lightbulb

No, if you run out, the car is useless, which is pretty daft really. I hope someone makes a mod which lets you purchase a can of fuel so that you can march back to your car/helicopter/boat and refuel it (and maybe keep a spare one in the boot).

NIce Find!

by the way any idea when the 2.0 patch is expected or when we should start mithering on about it.

What are deep shadows like on that front? I'm only used to EA's battlefield series lately

Hope they sort the character voice volume out so we can adjust. Whenever i talk to an NPC they are really quiet compared to my own voice and ambient sounds. I end up turning up the sound really loud to hear them, and then forget to turn it down...when I next shoot a gun its mentally loud. My Mrs is getting the right hump!

Thanks
