A lot of air has to pass thru the vent holes to keep the gas flowing.Hay dust will plug the vent holes.We also have a wasp that put an egg in to holes and caps it with clay.They just did the ignition switch on my sawmill and they plug up the water feed often.I changed the cap on my tractor 22 years ago.I started using tractors 50 years ago and was told never to open the gas tank on a hot tractor.Same with pressurized radiators.Even if the gasoline dosent take fire it is hot enough to burn you.Caps chan be tested for venting on the bench but it makes more sense to get a free new cap.new caps have a ball valve that will prevent gas leakage if the tractor is rolled.85 % of tractor upsets are to the side.
