Gas Cap Question.

I have a 1940's M38 WILLYS and have noticed a very annoying problem.
Every time I fill the tank and go around a corner Gas spills out of the
cap.
I have replaced the cap and even tried to beef up the cap however it still
leaks.
I have been told that in W.W.II they could not fill the tank because of
this issue. I find it hard to believe that the US ran around on a half of a
tank!
Please if anyone has seen this or has any advice let me know.
