Wing fuel caps are NOT vented, header cap is vented. When I accidentally overfill the wing tanks, they leak fuel from under the new gaskets, so I'm not sure if the lack of a vent means airtight. The wing caps have on occasion been so tight that removal and replacement required a wrench. Still leaked when overfilled. Flys fine. I have not yet flown it far enough in one stretch to empty the wing tanks and start burning from the header tank, so I don't know if there is any ill-effect with the current wing caps not venting, but these caps are what my manual calls for.
