How tight should a knock sensor be?

I just replaced my knock sensor but I dont have anyway to get any tools in there to get it very tight.. I tightened by hand as tight as I could get it but is that good enough?

since the engine is constantly vibrating that knock sensor will get loose fast. So i would say def. tighten it.

if its not tight, you will get a CEL, and it becomes loose VERY quick, like in 20-30 seconds, trust me.
