no. he brings bike, i fit gaskets & tighten nuts, he goes. more time needed, might be worth a shot, but never needed on any other loops i look after (4).
i presume you would let it cool down before re tightening.
i think it's bad practise to tighten down threads while warm due to expansion/contraction issues.
