Dual module large fuel tank.
Blueprint unlock savings (game files): Research Table study (60 scrap) saves 300 scrap (83% less) vs the 360-scrap tech tree branch
Monument recycling yield: Radtown green units return 50% of ingredients (5s cycle), beating 40% yellow safe-zone units by +25%
Bench repair & durability cap: Full repair costs 35 Metal Fragments and 20 Wood (zero rare bodies) while capping max condition by 20%
Conveyor & locker automation: Filter by category or shortname vehicle.2mod.fuel.tank to auto-stock locker kits and storage boxes
Fuel Tank Vehicle Module crafting, blueprint progression, and recycling in Rust
Crafting Fuel Tank Vehicle Module in Rust takes 25 seconds at a Workbench Level 2 once the 60 scrap blueprint node is unlocked, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Damaged copies repair at a Repair Bench for a fraction of recipe cost.
How Fuel Tank Vehicle Module compares to related components in Rust
When choosing between Fuel Tank Vehicle Module and related components in Rust, prioritize researching a looted or traded copy at a Research Table (60 scrap) whenever you want to skip the 360-scrap tech tree path and save 300 scrap, or unlock the tech tree branch when your group also needs the prerequisite blueprints.

How much scrap is the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module on the Rust tech tree?
Blueprint progression for Fuel Tank Vehicle Module at Engineering Workbench in Rust charges 60 scrap on the target node and 360 cumulative scrap along the prerequisite branch, while direct blueprint study at a Research Table charges 60 scrap.
How long does the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module take to despawn in Rust?
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module despawns after 40 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
What is the item ID for the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module in Rust?
The Fuel Tank Vehicle Module has 32-bit signed item ID 1186655046 and shortname vehicle.2mod.fuel.tank in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Components category (stack limit 1 unit per slot).
What is the give command for the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module in Rust?
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Fuel Tank Vehicle Module in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give vehicle.2mod.fuel.tank 1 or inventory.giveid 1186655046 1 for a single unit. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
