This is probably a dumb question, and yes, I am undoubtedly being overly cautious. Now that I have mounted the prop, I have to rotate the engine to set up the spinner on Page 47-04. At first when I turned it in either direction there was a lot of resistance, and a whirring noise. After rotating the engine in the "right" direction a few revolutions the going got easier and the noise disappeared, in that direction. However, if I try to rotate the engine in the reverse direction I still get the resistance and the noise. I theorize that this has something to do with the starter, but I need someone to pat me on the head and tell me this is normal!
