What is your question?
vehicle has 113,000 miles. I started smelling gas after filling the tank. it would go away after about 30 miles. Fueled it yesterday, 20 gallons, and at the pump i had a puddle after the pump stopped at the fuel station. Got home nd it continued to leak after killing the engine. it leaked about 2 cups of fuel and stopped. fuel guage also jumps around after starting. Any help would be amazing. thanks.

There are several places that fuel can leak at the top of the tank. The fill tube, the vent tube, and the gasket for the pump, filter, and screen assembly can all be found there. Have a reputable shop inspect and diagnose the leak for you and recommend repairs.
I was thinking fill tube. I put 21.5 gallons in. The most I've put in since owning it. It starting leaking at the gas station so I flew home. It was running from the top of the tank, down the sides and dripping from the bottom. It dripped maybe for about 10-15 minutes and stopped. I only lost 2 cups of fuel. Drove it to work the following morning and nothing. So far I've driven a total of 75 miles and haven't smelled gas or seen any leak. I think the o clamp where the fill tube meets the tank is has usted and fallen off. That's what I think happened.
