I think the waterless stuff is flammable.  Not sure I'd want a line rupture

yes, it goes "bad". All (I think) contain lubricating agents which are 
important in the health of the pump. I would think every two years 
should be adequate. I have no opinion about waterless, though I suspect 
the "lubricating agent" still holds true. Ask the manufacturer. Most 
have lots of information on the web...
