I tipped over a wet cell 50amp deep cycle. Don't think too much if any of the electrolyte spilt out but is the correct thing to do to just fill it up with distilled H2o.

Depends how much spilled out. If only a little splash then water will do. If its a lot then you need new electrolyte (acid). If the plates are still covered I'd just top up with water. If they're exposed I'd get new electrolyte.

Best to use distilled/boiled or tank water.
