So apparently you don't NEED a master cylinder cap.

Just found out that for the last 1000 miles I have been driving without a mastet cylander cap. Never lost a drop either.

I realize this means that I need to bleed my brakes now and replace the fluid. But I was pretty surprised I didn't die.

Yikes! It's kind of a scary feeling, I've been down that road with another vehicle years ago. I would replace the brake fluid ASAP though as brake fluid will attract and absorb moisture. Sounds like you're on top of it though. So, how did the cap disappear?

Recent brake job by yours truly.
