Help!

I use solid bungs on empty carboys only.

I concur not using solid bungs on bulk aging carboys since my one attempt resulted in the bung being popped out as Wade described and discovered days later!

I recently aquired some older carboys that are threaded, and have screw caps with them. Do you think the pressures could damage them if I tried to use them for bulk aging?

well I've learned something then.
I have a bung in another carboy, but I taped it down with duck tape as well so it wouldn't pop out.

Aaaah...duck Tape

Should not be a problem so long as the batch didn't not begin to ferment again due to improper stabilizing after sweetening or MLF.
