I removed it to drain radiator and having difficulty re-installing it. What am I doing wrong? Any tricks? It appears to just screw in but location makes it difficult to get any leverage.

Yes, you have to first push it in very, very hard and then it screws in. No room, always difficult and feels stripped. Hope it works out.
