I've recently (finally) gotten into the Cruiser world with a 1971 FJ40. I've driven it and had no fuel or engine issues but had never filled the gas tank all the way up. So last week, I filled it up by hand using jerry cans. When it was almost full, I noticed fuel dripping out from under the passenger door sill, at a pretty good clip. I washed it off and thought maybe I'd spilled some down the side. I then drove it for 20 minutes on our farm logging roads. Including parking it for a bit on concrete, where unnoticed no new leaks. The second time I parked it, unnoticed the same drippings. I don't know if the fuel line is leaking or if there's an overflow and the fuel is riding down the outside of the fuel line, then dropping onto the rockers, under the passenger side. Sorry for the long post, any advice would be great. Thanks!
 
Here is a picture of the fuel line underneath the passenger floor/inside of the door sill.
