Question Starter bolt torque?

For some reason, I have been having problems with the starter bolts backing out. (Nearly left me stranded in the parking lot after the last GTG.) It usually occurs about once every six months. I have used some blue threadlocker and retorqued them.

The Haynes manual lists 18 ft/lbs. Isn't that a little low? Can someone with the CD verify this is correct?
