I don't think mine is an AGM....I can see the water splashing around...but perhaps I'm mistaken.
Thanks for alerting me to the second hole....I thought there was just one. The way the car came to me was one and only one hole plugged and no tube. So now I have one hole plugged and the tube installed.
My 99 has an Everstart battery; it has just one hole and the tube is intact.
