Sue I had the same problem until I went to the cv-1 adaptors with the stubby spout. You won't believe the difference and well worth the cost
As soon as read this I was thinking that the spouts on the tubing were probably old. If you are using a mechanical releaser the sap flows back into the tap hole bringing bacteria with it every time the releaser dumps. Seasonal spouts are the way to go. I use the CV 2's and really like them. I used to use the 2 piece stubby and CV 1 adapter but have far fewer leaks and problems with the CV 2's.
