Can you borrow one?
If you go too tight, you can crack or smoosh the gasket and or not get an even seal, start leaking and have to do the whole damn thing over again. Im not the guy who preaches and does everything "by the book", but there are some things that are better done that way for your long term sanity if nothing else.
Its never detrimental to have an in/lb torque wrench. Either way, the bolts are not that tight at all.
