Default Overhaul 14 year old prop?

Our constant speed prop is getting long in the tooth. It was last
overhauled in 1991, when it received new blades.

My A&P says there is no reason to O/H or replace a prop so long as it meets
specs and doesn't leak. Since we fly a couple of times per week, internal
corrosion shouldn't be an issue.

Is there a "time in service" limitation on C/S props?
