Do you mean it wouldn't start threading, or it wouldn't actually tighten up ?

I have my standpipes just hand tight for easy removal and with tape on the threads they are easy to remove if needed. With them installed this way I get no leakage - my overflow box does not drain down when the pump is off

Does that help ?
