Fuel Fuel Leak From Rear Of '94 Cobra When Parked On A Slope.

First post here at Stangnet!

I purchased a very nice looking 94 Cobra the other day and after my first fill up I noticed fuel dripping from the rear of the car when parked on a slope. From the research I have been able to do online, the problem seems to be a bad fuel filler neck seal.
So I ask of all you fine Stang lovers out there, am I on the right track? Where else could the fuel leak be coming from? I've only put 12 miles on the car so far, and would like to get this fixed asap so I can get to know her a little better. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give, and have a great day!

That is most likely the culprit, unless the top of the tank is rusted out which I doubt. The filler neck seal is a cheap and easy fix.

The one you have might just have a pinch in it. Cheap enough to replace though.

Even if it turns out to be the tank those aren't all that pricey either. ~$80 at RockAuto. But it's more than likely this seal.

Definitely going to be a filler neck seal. If it was tank rust I think the car would be showing some rust too. I'm on #3 in my car in the 22 yrs I've owned it. Probably didn't need #3 but I had the tank out installing a new fuel pump and it wasn't looking good so I decided to replace it since the tank was out to save the headache later.

Yup... I kick myself any time the tank is dropped and I don't have another on-hand.

Forgot I asked this question. Thank you to everyone for the advice and help!
