    Huh? When I do this I have to push *like mad* (cursing, sweating, taking sanity breaks) to get the screen & spline in the groove, and when I use the wheel with the groove in it I end up cutting the screen! Is a nightmare. Maybe my older windows have smaller grooves?

    Why they make different diameters is beyond me, but there ya go..

    Don’t mean to state the obvious but it sounds like the spline was too large, they come in several different sizes.
