Is it overflowing shortly after you start pumping? Is it overflowing out the filler neck or some other spot? Are you able to put any gas in the tank?
Pump should automatically shut off. If this is the first time it did it, try a different pump.
Check the fuel fill and vent lines for kinks or other blockage. You may need to remove the inner liner.

What do you mean by removing the inner liner?

Perhaps "liner" was a poor choice of term. But FlyinRyan is right. Look under the body just aft of the tire and you'll see the plate covering the fuel inlet and vent hoses.
