Or you could order the auto stop valve rebuild kit for under $10 and
replace all the seals and everything inside.  its an easy job and safer
than replacing with the acme fill valve since some filling attendants may
forget to open the bleeder and all modern tanks autmatically stop filling
at 80%.  If anyone needs contact info to buy the repair kit p-mail me so i
can look it up.
