Got the gaskets, reviewed the service manual and the posts here (thanks guys!) and set to work. The service manual reads as if you're supposed to put the new gasket on the canister assembly before reinserting it into the tank, but then provides a description and diagram for "lubing" the inside of the gasket with gasoline while the gasket is inserted in the tank; meaning that the gasket goes first, then seat the canister.
Anyway, I seated the gasket first then fitted the canister, lubed up the locking ring plate and got the job done. All seems well at the moment and we'll see with the next fill-up whether I screwed something up.
Thanks again for the hand-holding.
