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.
