Is it leaking from the cap bottle junction or the hose pump junction? I have seen people new to the stove not lock the bail on the hose over the back of the pump.
The other thing I always do is put a little bit of spit on the hose barb before I push it into the pump. The oring then did something like 2-300 days of use before it started to leak. Replacing it is easy enough anyway.
