I just went outside and saw a puddle of gasoline under my '62 daily driver
just behind the front wheel. It was dribbling out of the drain tube from the
gas door pocket. I opened the gas door and removed the gas cap and gasoline ran
out until it was level with the top of the filler. I replaced the cap and
left it a few minutes, then observed that it was still dribbling (less) and
again removed the cap and had it run out. What would cause this? I've never had
this happen before!
Thanks
