I thought I read somewhere (maybe nsx driver) that the rubber fuel hoses should be replaced at some interval. I can't find the article and I am not sure which fuel hoses are being referred to assuming this is a maintenance item. Can anyone help? thanks.

I'm not sure if there is an official time interval. Think about the stress (heat and vibration) on those two hoses around the engine, one from the fuel filter to the engine and one from the front to the rear cylinder head. It's not a bad idea to change them after at least 15 years. I did mine (and they're not cheap) when I changed the O-rings of the injectors. The O-ring of the FPR is recommended too. 
Very cheap insurance. You can fabricate aeroquip or similar manufacture for around the price of new factory. Just more work.
thank you for the responses. and just so i'm clear, FPR stands for ...?
Fuel Pressure Regulator....i think :tongue:
