battery filling level
What are the consequences of overfilling a battery with distilled water? A little past the bottom of the filler tube?

If the slot in the filler tube is mostly exposed ("a little past the bottom of the filler tube"), do nothing; over time it will go down. Watch during charge and if the level starts to cover the slot completely, you'll have to remove a small amount of electrolyte to expose some of the slot to allow the gasses to escape.

What Doug says. Just don't really ramp up the charging rate on those batteries too much, that will boil the acid up and out. Normal usage or leaving it on a maintenance charger should drop the level, in due time.
