Consider replacing all the fuel hoses as a priority unless you know they've all been done recently. They have a finite life and heat + vibration will damage them over a few years. Once one has started to go, you never know what state the others are in. Mine all seemed fine but while it was in bits last year I replaced them all just to be on the safe side, one bit of hose out of sight over the diff literally snapped in half as I coiled it up to chuck in the bin.
