Good Morning Brenda...Follow Owen's advice and take the lines off and look at them. If they look good, clean the threads on a wire wheel or with some fine steel wool and put them back on with a bit of plumbers tape or the plumbers paste that is sold at ACE Hardware. Often this is all that is necessary. Over tightening will not solve the problem as there is too much space between the threads, male and female parts. The plumbers tape or paste will fill it in and stop the leak. Good luck. Ernie
