Hi all,

I've just finished putting new front rotors & bearings on my car. Haynes tells me to install the grease cap with a "soft faced hammer". OK - but should I really need to hit it dozens of times with all my might only to have it pop back off? These were really hard to remove in the first place, so I am suspecting more British understated humor.

My next option is the torch and the gloves to try to heat it up enough to slip onto the rotor. Of course, if I do that, I will never get it off again.

Help!
