Probably Yet Another Crown Tightness Question

    I've read quite a few posts giving advice on how tight a screw down crown should be and tend to agree with the theory of light finger tight plus another 1/8 turn. But on my SMP there seems to barely any resistance, (but you can feel something) before the crown touches the case. Does this seem normal or should there be a gap to the case?

    Thanks

    I wouldn't worry too much, as long as its all the way down it should be correctly sealed.
