Liquid fuel is a resource used to power various engines. It is commonly stored in liquid fuel tanks or fuselages.
Containers
Liquid fuel can be pumped automatically from a fuel tank to another fuel tank or engine connected via an FTX-2 External Fuel Duct. Fuel ducts aren't necessary when the components are directly adjacent or stacked on top of each other. When fuel tanks are not connected with fuel ducts, it is still possible to transfer fuel between them manually by alt-clicking on two of them in staging view.
Fuselages only contain liquid fuel and liquid fuel tanks also contain oxidizer in the correct ratio.
Associated engines
Jet engines need both liquid fuel and intake air to run. Liquid fuelled rocket engines run on a mixture of liquid Fuel and oxidizer
