Do Gas Stations have infinite Juice?

By default, no. But the amount of gas within the tanks is very high, it would take years to empty all gas stations on the map.

Each pump has around 15k-18k units of gasoline using the default setting (High, if I recall)

Strange. I am 1 month in, got my base up and running with a generator and the 2 gas stations I went to in rosewood are already out of gas...seems wayy too early for that too happen. where can I find that default setting you mention?

Do you have a generator at the gas station? Once the power goes out, gas pumps stop working and need to be powered by a generator.

It only needs to be on when you want to draw fuel.. But it does need power.

It can be randomish usually pumps have high into the thousands but if you really unlucky it can have a couple hundred which you probably went through during your month all i can say is don't try any lottery things for the time being. It also depends on what setting you went to in game as it also affects gas.

Ah that might be it. Power is out yes. I only filled up 1 van and 4 gas cans before it wouldn't let me draw any from it. Then I went to a new gas station I had never been to before and it wouldn't let me draw any so no way that was out completely. It is intuitive that the pumps need electricity to work but hard to figure that out first go around. Thanks!
