Fuel tank to fuel line connection problems

[Jesse G]

Hey everyone
I have a 97 Nissan NS5B and I have a problem connecting the fuel tank to the fuel line. I did buy a new tank because mine had a leak and I was able to check the fuel **** to make sure it was not leaking either. now the problem is the female part that is on the fuel tank is too big to fit on the fuel **** to where it doesn't seal and just falls off. I feel like im missing a part that should connect the 2 components together, if anyone has a solution ill be happy to hear it. thanks for your help

The fuel tank has a male barb sticking out. The fuel **** would be considered the female. The fuel **** has a screw that tightens it up to the fuel tank. If you are missing that screw/band then you need a new fuel ****.
