Yes, it only appears to happen with less fuel. The less there is the more likely it is to happen during a hard corner. I've filled the tank and cornered hard to test this out, only starts happening near the 1/2 mark.

By the way, putting the new fuel cap on did help the problem but it's still occuring.

I did notice some darker patches on the tank itself near where the filler neck would go in, and it smelled slightly of gas. Possible leak there as well, or overflow from above? Think it'd be a good idea to replace the tank as well as the hose, or just the hose?

Thank you again for all the assistance.
