I've got a few of these in the garage. They were excellent before the power bleeder, but now I don't use them. They are pretty neat though!

I've got them in all my vehicles. I love them, but a pressure bleeder like Kennys would be nice!
To answer your question they don't have to be super tight but they do need to be snug. Thread them in by hand and once they stop give them 1/4-1/2 turn with the wrench. Usually takes about 2 full turns for them to allow anything to escape.
