Hi John, the advice here is similar to the previous sweeteners, where the liquid amount is reduced by 3-4 tablespoons per each cup of liquid sweetener substituted (in this case, molasses). If you want to reduce the amount of molasses in your recipe, you'll actually be reducing the amount of liquid available in the recipe, so it's possible you might need to add a tablespoon or so extra liquid. However, depending on the recipe, this may not be necessary. If you're making cookies, try just reducing the molasses without adding additional liquid. If you're making a cake, you might want to add a little more milk or water.
