## Discrepancy

ENGINE LOSS OIL PRESSURE, DUE TO OIL LINE LOOSING TORQUE AT THE OIL COOLER CROSS FITTING.  THE OIL LINE SUPPLY OIL FROM THE OIL COOLER CROSS FITTING TO THE TURBO IS SECURE TO THE ENGINE MOUNT, IT SEEM VERY TIGHT FIT, SHORT AND STIFF, WITH THE ENGINE VIBRATION IT SEEM VERY EASY TO CAUSE IT TO BREAK LOOSE WITH OUT ABLE TO DETECT THE PROBLEM DURING MAINTENANCE.  THE ENGINE WILL LOSS OIL PRESSURE AND CAUSE ENGINE POWER LOSS INFLIGHT.
