Satsuma not starting
So i've kinda stopped playing the game cause my car wont start, i put the key in and turn but it doesn't start. I've checked the battery and i've even torn the engine apart. What could be the reason behind this?

The following issues might arise when attempting to start the car after it has been fully assembled. This section assumes that all of the damageable car parts have been replaced/serviced by Fleetari prior to the engine assembly:

The car doesn't make any sound
  • A) The car has not been wired properly, go through the checklist on this page and double-check that no wires have been missed.
  • B) The starter has not been fully bolted in; there are 2x7mm bolts that attach the starter to the engine (one of them also acts as the ground attachment for the electrical circuit), and 1x5mm bolt for the starter motor wire.
  • C) The battery is dead or not attached properly; it is attached with 2x8mm bolts (never leave the negative black side tightened on its own!), check the battery life with the battery charger first: if the needle is all the way to the right, the battery is dead. The stock battery is most likely already dead if this is the first time it is being attached to the charger.
The car makes a cranking sound, but doesn't turn over
  • A) Make sure the fuel tank has fuel in it; it might have leaked out due to untightened bolts, or it might have never been filled in the first place.
  • B) The spark plugs might not be tightened, or installed in the first place.
  • C) Check if the rocker shaft is broken or not.
The car starts, but doesn't stay turned on
  • A) The spark plugs are not tightened, thighten them up with the Sparkplug wrench.
  • B) The car has a lack of tuning; pull out the choke, keep the throttle pressed (don't redline!), and wait for the engine temperature to reach 80 °C (halfway mark on the gauge).

I have the same problem, I built the car and tried to start it. It made the starting sound, but then I figured that it didn't have any gas. So I went to Teimos and bought some gas for the car. When I got back home, I put the gas into the car and tried to start it, it said nothing. I tried to quit and re-join and try again. Still nothing. What could be the reason for this?
