## Discrepancy

ENGINE LOST RPM AND PARTIAL POWER ON GO-AROUND FROM REJECTED LANDING.  ACFT THEN FLEW NORMAL PATTERN AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  GROUND RUN-UP SHOWED NO ABNORMALITIES.  MAINT REMOVED INJECTOR NOZZLES.  NR 2 CYL NOZZLE WAS PLUGGED AND CONTAMINANTS FOUND IN SEVERAL OTHER INJECTORS.  THE CONTAMINANTS APPEARED TO BE FLAKES FROM THE INSIDE OF AIR BLEED HOSES TO THE INJECTOR NOZZLES.  THE HOSES ARE HARDENED BY HEAT AND SHOW CRACKING; THEY ARE CHIPPED WHERE THEY SLIDE ONTO THE NOZZLE TUBES.  WE INSTALLED NEW HOSES.  PERHAPS HOSE P/N LW-18737 SHOULD BE REPLACED AT 500 HOUR INTERVALS.
