How tight does the fuel pump lock ring have to be?



This picture of the lock ring was taken before I removed the lock ring and you can see the yellow marks that I made for reference points before removal.




I'm trying to finish up reinstalling everything and as you can see in this picture the yellow marks are not lined up.

To me it feels like I have the lock ring pretty tight but as you can see in the two comparison pictures that the lock ring reference marks are not in line from when I originally made the marks.



I have another issue where I can't get the left side fuel float to sit down in the hole flush. When I push down it seems like it's bind up against something? Any tips on getting this installed correctly?
