    Found this rubber plug wedged between the inner wheelwell and the firewall, below the brake pump. There's "A10" molded on the head. Anyone know where it goes?

    .40 S&W case for scale :D

    Maybe it plugs the hole where the oil drains when you take off oil filter

    Nope. The oil filter drain is a slip-on boot.

    My guess is it was a plug from your brake master, which was removed when the lines were connected. When I replaced my clutch pedal master, I'm pretty sure there were plugs like that in the ports of the new one. I removed them when I attached the lines. The clutch master is fed by fluid/line from the brake master.

    The A10 will take 2 hits from this POS, circle around and vaporize it in 4 seconds with over 300 rounds of 30mm ammo.
