The second question is, how many miles on the car? if there's only 1,000 miles on the car, no sense changing much of anything. But if the car has 10,000 hard miles, now's a great time to replace the clutch, because a clutch change is a big job. But a fuel pump change is pretty simple, and doesn't take much time.

If the car has a lot of miles and the pulleys are fine, leave them alone.

Listen to Bob,he spot on, don't change parts to be changing parts, keep the ones that worked well, change the ones that didn't.....don't over engineer your car.......
