How the F@!*

Changed the fuel pump in the tank a while ago, couldn't get the locking ring on properly so i just bodged it for a while. However if i put any more than say £30 of diesel in it leaks out the top, so ive just sorted a new one out to keep the job right, but can i hell get this one on either!!! I thought i must have distorted the old when getting it out/in through the hole that's slightly too small (anyone who's done this job will know what i'm on about here
).
I've opened that hole up now, so it's not that. I can't even get the ring on without the fuel pump in. I've tried cutting the old one & fitting a jubilee clip 'round it (actually two joined together to make a big one) but can't get that tightened up.
Any tips / advise greatly appreciated
