Line Up and Wait
So I planned to take a friend flying today, started the pre-flight and...the left (pilot's) side fuel cap is missing. All indications are of theft.
It is a 1973 C-150L.
The right side fuel cap is vented and the left fuel tank is vented with the tube that exits behind the strut. My factory parts manual lists a part number for the left cap and of course a different number for the right. When I do a search for these part numbers it seems as though the only cap I can obtain is the vented (right side) one. In fact, one site indicates that the non-vented cap has been replaced by the vented one. Also, the Cessna parts list shows the vented cap part number as right and left.
Anyway, my question: Would there be harm in having vented caps on both tanks? It seems as though this is the only option.
