Default Brake line leaking at connection to hardline.

Put the wilwood braided lines on with their streetplus kit and when I bled the brakes both connections started to leak brake fluid. What do I do? They are quite snug and Im scared i stripped the hardline nut. Perhaps the stainless lines arent a good fit? 95 sol vtec

I pulled them out and cleaned the threads with brake cleaner and hand threaded them back in, no leaks for now, will update.

I was going to say make sure the connection's are perfectly clean. Worse comes to worse you can cut off a bit of line and put in a replacement. Geed time to learn how to cut and flange brake lines.
