  No o-rings, just a taper fit seal.  Overtightening mushes the cone on the 
line to a cone with a brim around it.  This brim seats before the cone seals 
and it'll leak. Once they're that worn, they're gone.  I tried cleaning the 
brim 
off but it still leaked on mine.  The other possibility of a sudden leak is 
a cracked line.  If that's the case you need to replace it AND... Are all 
the line "clamps" still in place?  There should be 3.  If not then the 
vibration will crack the lines.
