SOURCE: How to tighten the hinges on a slow close toilet seat?
You don't want to overtighten since you could crack the porcelain. Are your rubber washers in good shape? This will help. You should be able to do this w/out doing any damage.
SOURCE: Removing rusted nuts from bolts to replace toilet seat
Try:
* Penetrating oil...let it soak at least 1/2 hour
* If the nut is stripped, try either grabbing it with vice grips
* If all else fails, either grind it off, or use a nut splitter. Nylon is pretty soft, so it should be relatively easy to break

Reach under the bowl of the toilet and feel for a rather large wing-nut bolt on each side of the toilet. You must hold these with your hand and tighten the screws with a screwdriver. If you don't hold these wingnuts, then the screws will keep spinning forever and never tighten. Run your hand directly below the toilet just below the screws and you will find them. VERY EASY FIX!
