no you were correct to not use tape,the flare of the lines provides the seal when tightened.the line has to make a "footprint" if you will so I'd try tightening and losing the fitting a few times to get it to find it's seat so to speak.(especially if the lines are stainless they're not as pliable as the oe carbon steel)try it a few times after it's been running that way everything's warmer and more pliable. if you can bear it.
