## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO MIA DUE TO IDLE POWER CONDITION FROM NR 1 ENGINE.  *S/D*  THE CAUSE WAS A FUEL LEAK FROM THE FUEL LINE FROM THE FUEL/OIL COOLER TO THE P&D VALVE.  THIS LINE WAS MISSING A FERRULE AT THE P&D VALVE  CONNECTION.  THIS ENGINE HAD ONLY 370 HRS SINCE OVERHAUL.  REPLACED P&D VALVE AND FERRULE ON FUEL LINE.
