Make sure that your FLAPS gives you the RIGHT rotor...

The Bentley tells you what the resistance should be for a "good" rotor.
Turns out I was given the one for a diesel motor when I know I told them
gasoline...yes the resistance was different...a DIFFERENT FLAPS gave me
the right rotor...go figure...

The rotor can fit on very very snug.  It just lifts straight up.
