Sal,
I've never heard of this phenomenon. The closest thing I've read related to a vented fuel cap is related to an issue with filling the tank. In some cases the gas pump will stop pumping gas into the tank but the tank is only half full.
Could you direct me to an article of which you are referring, perhaps I can help after I read it.
Jorge
