Helicopter Issues

[TKEE 0]

So i just found a helicopter parked in Gorka, got the engine fixed, rotar fixed, and some glass fixed. I have no idea what "Inst" is or how to repair it, so I'll just ignore it for now.

I took my Jerry can and started making fuel runs to the gas station, and after 6 runs I still have no fuel. Am I doing it wrong?

Well the helicopter takes TONS of fuel.. so it may look like it has no fuel, but I am sure it is filling. Make sure ALL the glass is fixed or it will leak gas. The INST is also important, use scrap metal to fix it. You most likely won't be able to fly successfully unless you fix it.

INST stands for instruments IIRC and is repairable with Scrap Metal. Choppers still leak fuel if all the glass is not repaired, so you putting fuel in, and the glass not being repaired, it's just leaking it straight out again.

Repair all the glass and the INST and try again :)
