I bought a Wal-Mart 94r this evening. How did you guys hook up the vent hose? All this battery has is a vent hole in each end and a plug for one of them.

Take the tube out of the old one and plug it in. Place the plug on the other hole. If you do not have the tube, most places sell a kit for about $10.

Update: Have put on ~6,000 km and the temps have dropped below freezing on a few days and the codes have not come back. Car still runs quite well with the wrenches at friends shop say it's one of the stronger runiung Beepsters they have seen. Looking to get it into winter storage soon before the snows (salt) comes.
