I've had an occasional leak with a full tank, but of course it always occurred when I did not have the opportunity to trace it. It usually occurse overnight, and not during the day, which seems odd to me. anything less than 3/4 tank, and there are no leaks.

This morning after filling up yestrday morning I smelled fuel and had time, and finally found the source at the fuel pump. The top of the pump is saturated, as is the depression in the tank where the fuel has leaked out. Needless to say I'd like to fix it ASAP, and am wondering if this is a common problem...and if so, is it most likely to be the pump to tank seal, or the pump itself?
