Fresh Water Overflow tube

My overflow tube comes out in the L.P.tank compartment. Every time I make a left turn or the motorhome is leaning to the right water flowes out the tube. Is there a way to stop this?

id say dont fill it that high but the turns is what causes the problems.. fill it full and look under to see how "full" the tank really is. mine gets to 9/10ths full before the overflow runs.

I had this with my GT and I put a tee in the line to break the siphon. When it started it drain about 1/3 of the tank.

The problem is that the tank on the Georgetown is very flat and shallow causing the water to slosh out. The solution is a simple 1/2" valve from home depot Placed on the overflow pipe. There is a photo on here somewhere.

I did that and it completely eliminates the issue.
