Hi all, I was surprised today doing routine maintenance to discover my carb
sockets/boots quite badly cracked. Surprised because I am quite careful to
check everything regularly and they were blemish free only 3 running hours
before. I have previously achieved long life from these and while my idle
was rough recently due to a float problem, it was not that bad!

Any ideas on what life to expect, there is an aftermarket company making
what is supposed to be a better part, I would like to know the name of that
company as an alternative along with any experiences with them.

As always looking for knowledgeable opinion on this, plane is grounded until
I replace these.

Chemicals, ozone, UV and vibration can cause premature wear.
