Every time I take a corner medium to hard, a few drips of gas drip on my passengers legs. I had my mechanic pull the tank and change the fuel lines, I purchased a new gas cap seal from 914 rubber. I even put a plastic tie down around the overflow hose. The mechanic took it off. What am I missing? It seems to drip more when the tank is over half full, but it still drips below a half as well. Thanks in advance for your help.

You didn't recently mount anything under the dash did you? if you did, you might have put a " too long" screw into the tank.
