I am able to move the retaining ring counter clockwise about 1/8 revolution and then it stops. Does it lift out once in that position because I can't get it to budge...carefully tried to see if it would pry loose but no luck.

The large white plastic thing? It unscrews. I used a pair of pliers, sliding the handle ends into the plastic to make it easier to turn.

No...it's a large black ring...doesn't want to un screw...it just stops. Should it fully un screw?

Yes, the ring unscrews

Thanks for the quick response...a factory hose clamp was in the way and acting as a stop...moved it and spun it off...10 mins later we have ignition!
