Default Battery issue

I have a 2008 precedent with Trojan batteries. The cart was running strong until I added distilled water to the batteries. The cart was running great but I noticed some of the batteries were low on water so I added some distilled water to the proper levels. The next day I had played about 12 holes before it started creeping up hills. I usually can play 36 holes without skipping a beat. Did I do something wrong or is this a coincidence it is happening now? Any fix?

the acid may be stratified at the bottom of the cell. do a couple of equalization charges and see if it doesn't get better.

I have fully charged it 3 or 4 times after I added the water and every time I use it, it starts creeping after a very short period of time. I can't figure out why it has never done this before and only started creeping after I added the water.

Have you:
1. Checked pack voltage after charge?
2. Checked individual battery voltages?
3. Checked cell SG's?

One of above may point in direction of problem . .
