Finding a Fuel Pump location in Fortnite and blowing it up is one of the Midas event quests you can complete this season. There are only three locations on the Fortnite map and you will need to beat other players to destroy at least one of them, or you'll need to wait for another match.

As with the other Fortnite quests this season, this one sounds a tad easier than it is, but once you figure out where you should look this could only take you a few minutes to do. Also, if you're brave enough to drop in on a Fuel Pump, you should be able to find at least one weapon there to use.

Without further ado, get your weapons at the ready as we're going to show you the Fuel Pump locations in Fortnite and how to blow one up.

How to blow up a Fuel Pump in Fortnite

To complete one of The Great Marigold Yacht Heist quests you need to blow up one Fuel Pump. To blow up a Fortnite Fuel Pump you need to head to one of the locations listed above and have a weapon.

Now, if you're feeling brave you can try to do this with a melee weapon but there's a good chance you'll be blown to pieces - so we advise using a ranged weapon.

When you're at a Fuel Station, aim at the Fuel Pump section near the vehicle entrance at the front of the Station. Repeatedly shoot this to get it to blow up - once you've destroyed one, it will set off a domino effect and destroy the rest of the items in the immediate area.

You will now have completed this quest! We highly recommend getting away from the area as soon as possible once you do this, the explosion will get other players' attention.
