So if I just put it in a autoclave with the rubber piece off the minute I take it out and put the test in it will it contaminate or will it be fine just put the rubber in after ?
 
You still need to sterilize the rubber stopper somehow.

The easiest way is to
1 wash and rinse both the vial and the stopper
2 mix alcohol+hydrogen peroxide
btw see if you can get a more concentrated peroxide, i.e. the one they use for hair bleaching instead of the one at pharmacies.
Leave rinsing overnight in a closed bottle.
3 allow to dry
4 wrap the vial in Aluminum foil (rinse foil with alcohol+hydrogen peroxide)
5 bake for an hour or two.
 
Dude. You've got a lot to learn from the questions you are asking about sterilization of vials. You probly oughta just put the brewing on hold for as while and do some reading. It's not safe to brew your own gear if you aren't well versed in cleansing and sterilization of glassware. Everything you need to know is in the homebrew section. Just gotta read
