Quote from the below TV Tropes page:
“Unfortunately, Haddock had already drunk them. Inspired by Tintin’s comment that they are running on fumes, he instead forces himself to belch into the tank, his breath already being established to be laced with booze. Sure enough it proves so potent it not just restarts the engine but causes it to catch fire.”
