Flywheel removal too easy?

[MarkV_Deep6]

This Past weekend I re-removed the flywheel on my V8, it had not been run since the first removal. I noted it did not require very much effort to pop it. Is this any reflection of the torque used to install it? I know the wrench was set to 150 lbs but the initial removal was a bear compared to this removal; makes me question my torque wrench, or technique. The wrench is a good clicker type.
Thanks for your insight in advance.

Did you clean and dry the tapers before you reinstalled it? Must be clean and dry.

Yes, I made sure it was free of oil and debris prior to installing. It just seemed to easy to remove this time.

they are usually easier to remove, if they are being removed again in a short time.
