I decided to look at my newly acquired 35-105 (sn 501,xxx) now that you are talking about it (mine is easy to focus at 105 btw - but you probably mean for testing purposes). I found that the aperture closes slightly when I select the aperture to smaller than 3.5. Once it has closed slightly, probably to 4.5) it remains constant throughout the aperture or zoom range. On the other hand, when I zoom it with 3.5 selected, the aperture does not appear to change in size - i.e. from 3.5 to 4.5.

Does the one you are testing do that?

Does anyone else's?

Have I bought  a lemon?
