Thanks. I might just buy a couple of new hoses and see how that works
out. Another problem is that it was also leaking from the Y-piece
connection,

Which bit of the Y-piece - where it screws onto the tap, or where one of the
hoses screws onto the Y-piece?

Either way, you need to make sure that you have fat enough washers to be
compressed enough to make a seal when the nuts are fully tightened. You can
get a bit more torque on the nut by using a rag between it and your fingers.
Don't use tools on plastic nuts though - you'll break the nuts.
