Preventive maintenance or wait till it breaks?


This is more focused on older gear- do you run gear until it's showing obvious signs of problems or do you do preventive maintenance before problems appear? I fall into the preventive maintenance side as I replace capacitors that are 20 or more years old.

I clean everything, especially contacts, at least once a year. I replace tubes when it seems like they need it. Anything more than that, well you know the saying "if it ain't broke..."? There's reasons that advice has such staying power.
