so the GE116 glow plugs have arrived. The box says a torque spec of 15Nm. Everywhere I have read it appears to be 19Nm. Does that difference matter? What do you all torque it to?

More generally though, how much variation in torque is generally acceptable? Is a couple of Nm overtorqued okay or does even a Nm make a difference.
