Torque specs for Knock Sensor? What if too tight?

Whats the torque specs for the Knock Sensor on a TPI? And what would be the symptoms of it being too tight (false knock maybe)??
Thanks

I'm not sure of the spec w/o looking it up. You are right though about it will sense an "early" knock if too tight. That's an old trick to reduce sensitivity, to loosen it.
