Depends, how many turns did the others take. They should all be the same. If the others were more than 5 turns, then you likely have a bolt that isnt seated and that isnt good. Take it back out, check the bolt, check the hole threads and try again. It sounds like you have a messed up thread and it should be re-cut and then will be fine.
