Looking for instructions/advice on how to bleed the air from my 69 power top hydraulic system. I have the rear seat out and can see lots of air pockets in various parts of the lines. The top goes up and down fine, but will not stay partially raised for too long before settling back down, one side somewhat before the other. No leaks of fluid evident anywhere and fluid in the lines appears red like Dexron fluid (as I believe it should).
First of all, should I even bother to worry about the air in the lines?

When I put new seals in my actuators I was very careful to get all the air out. Actually filled the actuators, installed them in the fully extended condition and purged all the air out of the lines before connecting, etc. You know what, after a while, I find air pockets throughout. My opinion, if it goes up smooth and evenly, I wouldn't worry about the air.
