I'm not familiar with the Motive pressure bleeder.

re: "add more". Are you referring to refilling the Motive tool and not in regards to adding more fluid into the master cylinder reservoir? i.e. when cracking the cap on the Motive, air bubbles get introduced into brake fluid in the Motive tool?

I use a home made "air" pressure bleeder. I've not noticed air bubbles created in the master cylinder reservoir when topping it up during the bleeding process.

Thanks,

Neil.
