I beg to differ with Larry, I have been running the non-vented cap on my
1275.  If I run the vented cap, the mixture is too lean, the idle is too
high, oil leaked out of the rear scroll seal, and it sucks oil through the
PCV system.  When I switched to the sealed non vented cap all of these
problems went away.  Experiment with both, and use the one that works.
