720 km with no oil cap
Haven't fueled up for about 3 weeks, halfway through my second tank, decided to check my oil level. Found my oil cap sitting on the intake manifold right next to the fill tube.
Is it possible for it to vibrate off if it is not tight, I remember putting the cap on my engine cover so I can't see myself forgetting to put it on after I changed my oil. No oil spray or nothing, I drive it pretty hard. Oil looks fine.
Should the car be fine?
I found a 6 year old thread with no real answers and i don't feel like bumping it. https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/ive-been-driving-without-oil-cap-52553/

When was the last time you changed your oil? I would change the filter as well because whatever bad stuff may have gotten in there could be clogging your filter up.
