Hey Chris,
Nope, I didn't forget. That would be the point of coming up with a torque value. What other torque value do you tighten to then back off a 1/6th turn? I'm trying to avoid the "tighten til snug then back off a 1/6 to 1/4 turn", when none of the values are defined. It's witchcraft.
What I am seeing is that nobody does it the same. Close, similar, but different, and everyone's idea of what is tight, is different.
It would be nice if some of the more experienced folks would actually check their values the next time they're into it. Do it the way you always have and then check the torque values. I bet we would have values all over the board. ;)
