Cristal- Change them. Cracks only get worse, and you can't visually tell how much time you have left. Same thing goes for tires, hoses, etc. It,s called "checking", or dry rot. I think ozone does it.
The Lockwood book should give the change schedule for it.

Bill, I don't have a book on Rotax engines. I downloaded a pdf Rotax maintenance manual from somewhere and all it says about it is to change it every five years or as required by condition. It's that "by condition" that I was unsure of. It looks like most opinions are toward changing it out however so I will do that.
Thank you.
