Master cylinder plug
Just bought a new master cylinder for the 968.
It arrived today via UPS. Only one problem...there is one extra port on the passenger side of the bore.
ATE listing shows correct application for the vehicle.
Where the heck can I get a plug to shut down the unneeded port?
Original master cylinder was cast with blanked out port area where the extra port appears on the new one.
I did not receive anything but the cylinder, two nuts, and a seal to mount it in the ATE box it came in.
If anyone can direct me to the source of a plug or has oother advise, please let me know.
Thanks

Napa sells kits with assorted plugs for testing master cylinders, bring it in there, they may sell the plug separately for just a few cents.
I don't know if you'll find what you need at a Lowes or Home Depot, most likely they will have NPT, which has a different thread pitch than flare. Make sure that you have the right thread pitch, don't cross thread it.
