Well, heating the manifold will certainly expand it, but might also expand inward as well. Harrold's right, threads are tapered and will go just so far before reaching stopping point. I'm thinking, and could be wrong, but if put into a hot manifold, will tighten sooner because expanded inward, and will loosen when cools. Give it a try. If loosens after cools, tighten it cool.
