In the short term, it wont matter what kind of cap you have. But in the long term, you will be loosing gas due to evapouration. Just go to a Nissan dealership, and grab one that has been tested for its seal.  
Trust me, they test them, I used to work there. You’d be suprised how much of a difference it makes to haveing one that works, compared to a shitty one from CT.
