Why is there a vent hole in the cap of the clutch master cylinder?
On the plastic container where the fluid is kept there is a little vent hole why? can mostiure canin there and ruin the brake fluid which is what is in the clutch master cylinder?

Notice that there's a rubber boot down in there, that actually does the sealing... fluid can't get to that vent because of it. That's why GM sells them pre-filled and pre-bled; where the fluid is, is completely sealed from the atmosphere.
