Default Hydraulic leak from Master to Slave

Hey guys,
I've got a leak from where the flex line attaches to the quick connect hardline that goes into the slave.

This is my connector.

Is there anything wrong with that? I have no idea what it's supposed to look like, but I'd assume I need all 4 sides covered on that black hard plastic piece, but I don't really know.

How does the quick connect work? What would cause it not to work here?

Thanks guys
Jim

I just noticed that the female end of the quick disconnect has the hose sitting flush with the hard plastic. My connector, http://s159.photobucket.com/albums/t...7186580814.jpg , has about a quarter inch protruding from it. Am I using the wrong connector?

OK, so I found there's a little rubber boot that goes around that end 1/4 inch. Put that on, bled the clutch, and seems like I'm good on this...
