I have a top loader Maytag model # MAVT754EWW that had been overflowing. Was unable to stop the water flow with unplugging the
power cord or depressing the off switch. Took the top washer apart
and was able to stop the flow of water while blowing air into the tube
connecting the tub and position switch. I assume the problem was with
the water inlet valve,which I replaced. So far the washer seems to be
working okay. If the washer starts to overflow again,have I missed
another source for the problem?

Sounds to me that you have found the cause.
Other things that can cause this are:
Cracks/holes in the pressure tube
Pressure tube not sealing correctly at the level switch
A plug at the pressure tube in the tub.
