Earlier versions of the Motive were shipped with plastic hose that disintegrated when they came into contact with, you guessed it: brake fluid. I learned this when I got a face full of high pressure brake fluid a number of years ago.
Shockingly, I still use mine, because I've never had as good of results doing fluid flushes by other methods (vacuum, gravity, old-fashioned pedal-pumping). I got an updated hose from Motive (free!) and I am diligent about cleaning the thing with denatured alcohol after use.
