Quick Q about side seal and springs
Putting my side seals and springs in. The springs have a dab of white painted on them. The Haynes doesnt say if these go down facing the rotor, or up facing the seal. Which way they go???? 
Thanks, Jason

Sorry can't asnwer that but I believe the color is only there to discern what type of spring it is, although I could be wrong. When I pulled my springs I didn't notice any difference in how they would go in. FC3S.ORG has an FSM online that you could check.
