My experience exactly. Hence the reason I suggested not to use a torque wrench. It sounds like you got them tight enough. You don't want to strip the threads from overtorquing. Unfortunately you can only develop a feeling for proper torque from a lot of wrenching experience. Otherwise I use a torque wrench wherever it's required. Good luck.
