While I believe that under torquing results in a loose connection that is subject to overheating. I do not believe that over-tightening can result in the same problem. I would think some engineer found a cross threaded screw once that was over-heated when it was actually loose and incorrectly hypothesized this whole line of thought or maybe the overtightened lug was actually broken. But can anyone actually think a super-tight connection can over heat because the connection isn't loose enough? Any evidence from you guys that I'm wrong? Please, tell me, because I just don't see it.
