How often should you replace compound bow cables and strings?
TaylorCamp
It doesn't really matter if you shoot 500 arrows a year or 500 arrows a
week; all you have to do is keep your string well-waxed with beeswax,
and examine it every so often for fraying (the string starts to get
fuzzy) and broken strands. Examine the cables for wear, and look at the
teardrops once in a while to see if the cable is pulling out. As for
storage: compounds were designed to be left strung, so don't worry about
that. However, don't let it lie around someplace where it can undergo
extremes of temperature and humidity---for instance, hanging it up in
the back of a pickup-truck gun-rack probably wouldn't be too good for
it. Oh, and take it in to your favorite local pro shop, and have them
check the cams and lube up the axles once in a while.

Will a compound bow break because of age or wear?
Absolutely! Over time the limbs on compound bows will weaken and possibly crack which will eventually result in a break. Also, strings and buss cables will wear and break. As a rule of thumb, strings and cables should be changed approximately every two years. Limbs will have to be changed as soon as cracks form.

How can you tell when a guitar string is old?
Old guitar strings sound dull - they lack the tonal richness of fresh strings, whether they are nylon or steel. Older strings are also difficult to keep in tune; their lack of elasticity will mean that older strings will often go audibly off-tune even after a few minutes continuous playing. In the case of metal strings the strings will also look dull, and will be prone to metal-fatigue (making them more likely to snap during tuning or playing). --------------------------- Assuming were talking about steel strings, some musicians replace them after each performance or practice session. There is no accurate answer. As a rule, a casual player should replace the strings at least once a year and some would say 6 months. If you look closely or rub them and there is any corrosion at all - they definitely need to be replaced because their ability to produce accurate tones is compromised. If someone gave you and old guitar and you think it sounds pretty good, play it until one of the strings breaks.

Would it due any damage to a 1995 jetta GL 2.0 if you replace the spark plug cables from a Nissan 240sx?
If you are talking about switching the spark plug cables between the two vehicles then, as long as they fit snug it should not hurt it. However different engines use different length and thickness cables for spark plugs. You would not get a genuine optimized spark by using non spec cables.
