Its hard to say, but snug is good... On the f-body cars, that sensor is a bitch to get to so I made sure it was nice and snug with that "L" bracket before I put the intake on.
I know without the bracket, i could wiggle/shake the sensor pretty easily.

and it ran without the bracket with no ill effects??
I did not try it... I put the bracket on, then put the intake on.
Im sure if you think it might be leaking, you can always try and sneak some kind of sealant back there while on yoru finger...
I know they mentioned before about the temp sensor... Is your car warming up at all?? I guess a better way to put it is, does it show it warming up on the guage?
