Default Fuel pump replacement

Hey all-

Looks like I'll be replacing a fuel pump soon. I plan to go through the package tray. Is there anything else I should tend to while I'm in there?

Nick

I would replace the filter/sock that's ahead of the pump with one that is NOT the original Jaguar design. I'm convinced the Jaguar item (at least the ones in the XJR application) gums up and contributes to premature pump failure.
