I tighten it till it breaks, then drill it out and re-tap it, then not tighten as much the next time
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

My uncle always said to turn it till it screams, then give it a quarter turn more.

Craftsman clickers, 3/8" drive foot pounds and 3/8" drive inch pounds. The inch pounds is a big deal when you adjust the valves.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

I couldn't find my snap on and picked up a little spring loaded cheap one. I think they all get you close to the right pressure.
I say don't spend a lot of money. The Roadworthy method works fabulously too.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

Craftsman beam torque wrenches for me, as I want to control the force applied. I just don't trust clickers.
