## Discrepancy

ON 5/17/26, N924PS CYO924 WAS DEPARTING KFOE HEADING TO KHYI. DURING THE CLIMB OUT, THE CAPTAIN NOTICED THE RH ENGINE LOW PRESSURE LIGHT HAD ILLUMINATED. THE LIGHT ILLUMINATES AT 20 PSI. THE CAPTAIN THEN VERIFIED THE OIL PRESSURE INDICATION AT THE PRESSURE INDICATOR. HE REPORTED THE INDICATOR WAS NEAR ZERO HE SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN AND RETURNED TO KFOE. ATI JET MAINTENANCE WAS SENT TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE. UPON ARRIVAL, THE MAINTENANCE TECH WAS DISCUSSING THE ISSUE AND THE CAPTAIN REPORTED CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL PRIOR TO DEPARTURE, WAS DISTRACTED AND DIDN'T PROPERLY SECURE THE LATCH ON THE OIL SERVICE PORT/DIPSTICK. FOLLOWING THE PRATT & WHITNEY MAINTENANCE MANUAL TROUBLE SHOOTING/TESTING PROCEDURE,  THE ENGINE OIL FILTER AND CHIP DETECTOR WAS REMOVED AND INSPECTED - NO INDICATION OF ENGINE DETERIORATION OR DAMAGE WAS PRESENT. THE OIL FILTER AND AN OIL SAMPLE WAS SENT TO AVIATION LABORATORIES FOR EVALUATION. PER THE P&W MM, THE ENGINE WAS SERVICED AND THE ENGINE ROTATED THROUGH THE GEARBOX MANUAL DRIVE ACCESS. NO DISCREPANCIES NOTED. THE ENGINE/AIRCRAFT IS CONSIDERED OUT OF SERVICE UNTIL THE OIL SAMPLE RESULTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED AND EVALUATED BY P&W.
