## Discrepancy

ON TAKEOFF ROLL,  NOTICED AN EXCESSIVE FUEL FLOW INDICATION AND ABORTED TAKEOFF.  ON INSPECTION OF THE DISCREPANCY THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE HIGH FUEL FLOW READING.  AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE AND REMOVING THE ENGINE COWL, A SPLIT IN THE NR 1 CYLINDER FUEL INJECTION LINE WAS NOTED AND WAS DUMPING RAW FUEL IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAUSING THE HIGH FUEL FLOW INDICATION.
