Well a couple of things that I think I see in your pic. First, it looks like your filter is not rotated so that the red tabs snap into the black lid. May not be an issue for you. As the filter sits, out of the fuel bowl, it will move around. It's not that tight of a fit. Secondly, the gasket in the pic looks too small to go on the lid. I'm not sure where that one goes.
