## Discrepancy

IGNITER WOULD NOT THREAD INTO ENGINE LOSS DURING O/H ASSEMBLY.  1ST THREAD SHOWS DAMAGE AND FURTHER EXAMINATION SHOWS THREAD DIAMETER IS .003 INCH-.004 INCH LARGER THAN THE OTHER NEW IGNITER INSTALLED ON THIS ENGINE.  THE UNDAMAGED IGNITER WAS CHECK-THREADED INTO BOTH ENGINE BOSSES WITH NO PROBLEMS.  RECOMMMEND CAREFUL CONDITION CHECKS.  (K)
