## Discrepancy

DURING ANNUAL INSPECTION, NR 2 CYLINDER WAS REMOVED DUE TO LOW COMPRESSION.  WHEN CYLINDER WAS REMOVED, THE CUP PORTION OF THE EXHAUST SOLID LIFTER FELL TO THE FLOOR.  THE CUP SECTION OF THE LIFTER HAD BROKEN COMPLETELY OFF.  ALL LIFTERS HAD BEEN REPLACED DURING PREVIOUS ENGINE OVERHAUL.
