How much leaking? Are they factory punched? Single hole, double hole, more?
I use a single punch, about 1/16th in my tanks with a 60/40 pg/vg mix. There's always a drop on the battery connector but no more than that.

Have you first filled/ fully saturated the carto properly BEFORE installing in the tank? What PG/ VG ratio are you using? Are the cartos pre punched and how many holes?
How have you been filling your cartos prior to installing them into the tank?

Well where i got the tanks at it said fill the carts from the bottom,in other words from the center tube,done it many times and never had a problem after blowing out!
Via what method are you filling through the bottom, condom? My guess is that, you are definitely over saturating the carto. As you now know, per your previous experience . . . There is a fine line between properly saturated and over saturated.

not condom,and not over saturated,drop by drop in air tube from bottom,then put in tank, just made this tank myself from syringes,worked fine when i first made it now seems to flood a lot!
Homemade tank, huh? 
Could there be juice leaking between the carto and tank? Typically some quality and properly fitting o-rings prevent this from happening.
So try to ascertain if the juice leakage is from the carto itself or between the tank and carto.
Are you using a tank accessory tool to protect the o-rings from the sharp edges of the carto top? The o-rings could now be damaged. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOhhasydESQ

Without seeing and handling the tank myself, I have no further suggestions. Theoretically, there could be issues with the tank's inner pressure causing the carto to flood with a homemade tank.
I hope you figure this out. Good luck.
using same setup as me.(specs)
I fill 30 drops from top install and fill tank set aside for a while - 15-30 minutes.
I use the Boge F16 double punch
