If you leave the cap off you sometimes will get brake fluid splashing out causing a big mess when you pump hard. If the cap is plugged your brakes won't work anyways as the vent is essential for proper operation of the master.<br><br><div id="AppleMailSignature" dir="ltr">Sent from my keyboard</div><div dir="ltr"><br>On Jun 30, 2019, at 9:48 AM, crusaderchuck55--- via Spridgets <<a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net">spridgets@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">
