To assist in maintaining a seal ring in a proper position in a fuel tank assembly, a retaining ring is utilized. The retaining ring surrounds the seal ring to provide a physical barrier to restrict the seal ring. The assembly includes a tank having an opening and a plurality of flanges located about the opening, a fuel pump module, the retaining ring and a seal ring. The retaining ring is located within the plurality of flanges, positioned around the opening and the fuel pump module. The seal ring is located within the plurality of flanges, positioned around the opening and the fuel pump module such that in a radial direction the seal ring is positioned between the fuel pump module and the retaining ring, and in an axial direction the seal ring is positioned between the fuel pump module and the fuel tank.
