The cheater vent has a different function than the pee trap. Without a vent in the line water will not always drain becoming air locked in the line. The pee trap prevents smells from coming back up the line from the tank..

Unfortunately, if you have the cheater vent it needs to stay open.. however if smells are coming from it you will need to either try and repair it or just replace it with a new one.. They are an inexpensive item and usually can be found at home stores like Lowes and Home Depot.
