Toilet leaks when on it
So, when I sit on the toilet, I can hear the water leaking into the black tank, if I scoot forward on the seat it appears to stop?????

- foot touching the valve ?
floor behind the flange damaged at all ? - There is a seal between the bowl and the tank, attached to a flapper. I'd suggest to use a brush to clean inside of the bowl where that flapper seal seats and then pour 2 tbls. of vegetable oil onto the flapper.
- I just replaced the bowl seal in my TT. The kit came with a floor seal as well. Quick fix, all of 20 minutes. Bought the seal kit at camping world for around $13.00
- I just changed the tank seal, I may look at the bowl seal for the floor
- So because it only leaks when I'm on it, that doesn't lead me to believe it's the floor seal, otherwise I would have water on the floor, gas smell, etc. is the toilet flexing and allowing the bowl seal to leak water????

That would be my guess. If you pull the toilet to replace the seal, you might find that the toilet isn't supported properly due to a poor installation or rot of the flooring. Poor support will allow flexing.
