## Discrepancy

OIL COOLER SENT FOR REPAIR ON MOUNTING FLANGE.  RECEIVED AND REINSTALLED ON 10-12-95.  ON 10-22-95, ON A TRIP, THE COOLER SPLIT AND DEVELOPED A LEAK.  REPAIR STATION FOUND THAT INSTALLER OVERTORQUED THE BOTTOM FITTING.  SUBMITTER DISAGREES WITH THAT FINDING, BUT FEELS THAT IF IT IS A PROBLEM, PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW.
