Gas Leak (Sometimes)

I have a 1986 F250 with 351. I noticed a puddle of gas under my truck awhile back and could not trace where it came from. It was right under the front tank. It started doing it more often but still that was only once every three weeks or so. I quit using the front tank and ran it dry. The other day I refilled the rear tank and somehow an hour later there was good size puddle of gas under the front tank. How? I also did not run the truck when it leak. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
