Need help! Did front brakes and forgot to open master cylinder

[oneqwicksho]

Finished clutch and figured I would do pads/rotors. Well I forgot to take the cap off master cylinder when pushing the pistons back in and noticed after doing both sides I have fluid dripping down the front of the brake booster. The leaked has stopped, but idk. Going to have the wife pump the brakes when she gets home and check for leaks. Couple questions. 1. Am I screwed? 2. Did it just push the fluid past the valve and I'm good. Or 3. Burn it lol hopefully its not 1., or 3.

You know I was think that too lol. Had the wife pump the brakes and no sign of leaks. So far so good. Now just need to start it and try

You're fine what you did was push the fluid out the cap. happens a lot when you wear the pads out you need more fluid in the caliper so the level goes down many people top it off and when you do the brakes you push all the fluid in the caliper back into the master cylinder resivoir and it'll come out the top of it if there is that much fluid. Make sense?
