Loosing fuel out of filler neck
1969 LeMans with a stock tank that has a sump.Here's the problem when the tank is 3/4-full and you get on the car hard with the weight transfer it blows fuel out around the cap. I have tried two new caps...any thoughts.

Are you using a vented cap?? If so, you may have to go to a non-vented cap & run a vent off of the top of the tank.

Check the sealing area on the filler neck. I have seen several that have a small indentation/ dent in that area. My 61 Tempest has this dent & it leaks when I make a quick right hand turn with over 1/4 tank. Just a thought.
