You are right to ask. I tried to add more fluid because my top went up with "jerky" motion. Shortly after adding the extra fluid, I ruptured one of the hoses behind the rear seat. That filled the seat foam with ATF and half melted the vinyl seat covers (the vinyl became very soft and drooped). Years later everything dried out and pulled mostly back into shape. But that is not an episode I want to repeat.
I side with Tom (and not just to kiss up to the new Mod) on this. A blown line is more likely from aging lines and/or resistance to the pressure ("jerky" motion = binding somewhere?), and NOT from "filling when the top is at the wrong position".
Down to just a blue car now.
