Putting the wing fuel caps on backward on a Taylorcraft will not suck the
fuel
out of them. It will just not let them flow into the main tank. All you
have
to do is land and turn the caps around and you are good to go.

I think you're probably right, but I've never had the experience, having
learned long ago to pre-flight. This practice was reinforced after a
line-boy gassed us up and put those lids on backwards in Kankakee.
