Gas cap leak too much?

When i got the italika it leaked alot of fuel out the gascap vent.On the underside of the cap there is 3 screws and a big hump. remove the screws and under the hump there was 2 steel balls one big one small. Check valves. Usually there is only 1 so i took the small ball out and re assembled. No more leaks,not a drop. i was able to take the hose thingy off too.

I wonder why they put 2? it really didnt work at all as a check valve. I probably lost a few CUPS worth of gas per tank through it.
