Default Fuel Leak

Filled up the tank earlier this week and drove to work. When I came out I noticed a puddle under the tank and gas dripping down. It's coming down the right rear corner of the tank. Was just wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem.

Right rear meaning passengers rear? That's definitely not normal. I have seen it leak from around the filler neck though especially if you tried to sqeeze that last dollar in there.

Yea it's definately coming down the passenger rear side of the tank. Didn't think it was too usual.

Hope I fixed it. I cut the top over the pump out and found a fuel line somewhat disconnected. Must have pulled it off when I changed the fuel filter. It was being channeled across the tank and down the rear on the right.
