As an example of how little a loss of fluid will lead to a loss of pressure, the DND sent a message warning that the mico brake lock on the deuce was not to be used as a parking brake for anything other than very short term. The mico brake was a in-line solenoid that would lock the brake pressure into the system to be used for things like winching.

Once applied, the loss of as little as 3 drops would lead to the brakes releasing.
