    Oh okay, I've never had my hands on it before so I'm not sure what piece you're having a problem with.

    I have one of these guys.... There are a set (3) gaskets you need... 2 for the top and the bottom of the filter cartridge and 1 for the outflow tube on the "inside stand" I think you are talking about.... Missing any one of these and it dont work... also if any are bad it wont work.
