## Discrepancy

BOTH AD2000-06-01 AND SEB97-9 DID NOT APPLY TO THIS AIRCRAFT.  (STRAINER HAD NOT BEEN SWAPPED OUT).  DURING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, SHOP INSPECTS THE STANDPIPE OF THESE STRAINERS SINCE IT IS A VERY EASY PROCEDURE.  DURING MAINTENANCE OF THE FUEL STRAINER, FOUND THE STANDPIPE WAS EXTENDED TOO FAR AND ACTUALLY PULLED OUT OF THE TOP ASSY WITH FINGER PRESSURE ONLY.  STRAINER WAS REPLACED WITH SERVICEABLE UNIT.
