Brake master cylinder not filling
Just got the car built but I try to fill the cylinders and they start to fill but then empty fast. The clutch cylinder is fine since that filled, but the brakes won't I checked all 4 nuts at the wheels and they're all tightened and unless there's two for each wheel I know it's not that. The nuts for the cylinders themselves are all tightened and I went over every millimeter of the lines and all the nuts are tightened down so I'm not sure if I'm missing a nut somewhere. Any ideas? Yes I realize I can look this up on Youtube or online but I like asking human beings once in a while.

you missed a bolt / bolts somewhere. there might be one near the rear wheels.

Brake master cylinder: 1x9mm at brake pedal, 2x8mm to mount it to the firewall
Brake lining: 12x7mm (7 line nuts and 1 bolt in the engine bay, 1 line nut at every wheel).

You've obviously forgotten one somewhere. Or you have used MSCeditor on this save

Well I don't use the editor because I don't believe in using programs like that personally and I don't even know how to get it. Anyway, after I got some sleep I went and looked up the brake linkage guide on Youtube and I know I missed one.

You're one of the good ones! Just double check those bolts and keep in mind there's always a slow leak. I personally do the brake stuff before installing the engine since it's easier to maneuver around in the engine bay.

I had to restart it since on my last save I got the truck stuck in the bog by the tracks. I tried for a good hour and a half but I couldn't get it unstuck even with the tractor so I restarted.
