Leak from clutch slave cylinder bleeder

Hi,

I just got done changing out the fluid in my clutch, double checked to make sure everything was tight, and took it for a ride. I got back in my garage and noticed my clutch slave cylinder was leaking from the threads of the bleeder nut. I checked to make sure it was tight for a third time, wiped up the oil, and watched it. Oil started seeping up through the threads again. Has anyone experienced this before? How do I fix it? I just filled it with 5wt fork oil because my bike shop didn't have mineral oil. Any help with the matter is greatly appreciated!
