Default Leaking connection above the coupler

Hi,

New here. I just recently brought my kegerator out of storage and I cleaned everything and flushed the coils. After I put everything back together and tap a keg, the beer leaks out of the top of my coupler at the connection above the coupler where you connect the hose that goes to the faucet to the tap. I put some petro-jelly around the seal and the threads of the connector but it still starts to leak after about 5 minutes. Any ideas?

Sound like you lost the rubber washer when you were cleaning the line, look around and see if you dropped it on the floor of the cooler
