I don't know that tank at all, but some things to check:
1) Are all the O-rings forming a proper seal, and are you sure you didn't replace one while changing it? (Tanks will often come with diagrams of what goes where and spare O-rings in case that happens... It's not uncommon).
2) Is there a part you think you might not have screwed in tightly enough? If so, do you have thoughts as to where? Everything should be tight, but not so tight that you'd break anything by screwing it down further.
3) Did you check that your coil was tight in the mod.... Is it a new coil and that is why you were washing your tank? Make sure that it is a hair tighter than finger tight, is what I usually do. Easy enough to remove with a bit of pressure, but definitely snugly seated.
4) If it's a new coil, could be that you have a coil that isn't good. Sometimes there have been QC issues with smok coils, and they can cause leaking and flooding. If everything else looks good, you could try another coil.

Best of luck with a solution.

The condition is hard to diagnose without examining the equipment.
Could contact:
local B&M Vape Shop (Visit) -----Might be simple.
Vendor who sold it ---see if they will repair or replace or advise (any authorized distributor).
Manufacturer contact ---see if they will repair or replace or advise.

One of my X-Baby tanks did that too. It was a simple fix, since I had a few tanks sitting around that I never use anymore. The tiny grommet that fits the hole in the base of the tank and allows the contact pin to pass through is likely either distorted or just isn't sealing. I took one out of a Baby Beast tank that had a broken top hinge and fitted it in. Fixed it.
Good luck.
