I have a '96 Mustang GT and the gas tank recently started leaking. It only leaks when I completely fill up the gas tank. I'd like to know what might be the problem and what I need to do in order to get it fixed and the possible cost. Also, is this car okay to drive? Thanks

Sorry have to say this, Don't fill it all the way.
Seriously, where is it leaking? (On the tank or the goose neck?)

It isn't leaking from the tank itself. The leak seems to be coming from here the filler tube meets the gas tank. Thanks.

Take the rubber gooseneck off the tank and see if there any cracks or corrosion around the weld. Also check to see if the hose is cracked.
