Issue with iTaste MVP

[aznzing03]

Hey guys!
I'm new here and have been vaping for about 5 months now.
Tried Blu about a year ago when they first started coming out, hated em.
Went to a local Vape shop called Smokeless Smoking in Bloomington and loved them. They gave me all the information I needed to start out and set me up with a basic iTaste MVP starter kit which included two clearomizers.
Fast forward to now.
Been currently using an Artemas Carto tank and a Protank on my iTaste. As of late both of them haven't been threading on all the way. In the way of they will start to thread about 3/4 of the way down in the threads and the Protank is barely even tightening.

Has anybody ever experienced this before? Any common things that maybe I am doing wrong? It is all 510 connections that it happens with including my iClear30 as well.
Anybody have any fixes that could possibly work?

Thanks a lot!

It's possible you could have messed up the threads on the unit. I've heard this happen to a friends itaste because he kept sitting down and stuff with it in his pocket. Doing that applies pressure to the wrong points of the mod, especially when the tank is screwed in. If it isn't that then I would speak to the vendor who sold it to you.

Yeah it seems like the threads have been messed up. More so just seeing if somebody else has had this problem, and if there is anything I can do to fix it?
I've not put any wrong pressure on it, afaik, but apparently that's not the case.
Sad because I like to use the VV for my Protank for different VG liquids.

the 510 thread is M7x0.5 and the ego thread is M12x0.5 both tap & dies are available here. I have yet to see anyone else carry them http://www.victornet.com/specials.html?id=qdpkc6jy

I had a similar issue with my ego spinner and picked up some ego/510 adapters from fasttech. They fixed my ego and now I use them on on my MVP just to protect the threads.

Thanks!
I was thinking about re-tapping the threads for sure, but I realized I rarely use it anymore since I purchased a couple of mech mods.
And I tried one of the adapters, but it wouldn't even thread the adapter tight enough to make a solid connection.
