I have done several tabs by ear and when I was not sure of some notes I would take a day or two away from the song then go back to listening to it, especially other parts of the song to see if that pattern was in another part of the song and maybe I missed it the first several times and see what I put down there, and if that didn't help I would change the notes in question with lower and higher notes to see if any of those sounded better, sometimes I would find my original note sounded the closest and sometimes it may been as little as bending a note to make it sound better.
As far as when to post the tab, I would say without sheet music to go by, when it sounds good to your ear then go ahead and post it.
The other thing you could do if you wanted to is post a link to the song and list in your post the part of the song that you are having questions about and list what you have it tabbed as and see if anyone else has any thoughts to if it is correct or not.
