    Trim cylinder replacement

    I have replaced upper and lower units with SEI 106 on my 1978 Mark Twain.
    I am now replacing the trim cylinders with 102 series.
    Do I need to worry about bleeding the system after I change out the cylinders or should the system handle that after I run them up & down a couple times and refill the system will oil?
    Also, what weight oil should I be using to refill?
    I know this isn't high tech but I would like to make sure I don't miss a step and damage anything.
    I don't want to have to buy a new pump this year too.
    Any advice is appreciated.Thanks

    The system is self bleeding, so install everything, top up the oil, run it up and down a few times, then top off the oil again. For fluid, you can just use ATF fluid.

      Sounds simple enough. If I use a Dexron III do I need to flush the entire system or just add to existing fluid?
