A system for preventing overflow in a storage tank which is fillable via a nozzle includes a nozzle receiver configured to fit within a fill passage of a storage tank. The system further includes at least one seal disposed in the nozzle receiver configured to seal the nozzle within the nozzle receiver. The system has a first passage and a second passage. The first passage is configured to fit at least partially within the fill passage of a storage tank and receive at least a portion of a flow of liquid from the nozzle. The second passage is in communication with the first passage. The system also includes a valve having a first position that directs liquid to flow through the first passage and a second position that directs liquid to flow through the second passage.
