## Discrepancy

DURING OTHER MAINTENANCE,THE DRAIN LINE FOR THE GRAVITY REFUEL PORT WAS FOUND CRACKED IN 4 PLACES.   THIS COULD ALLOW FUEL TO LEAK INTO THE TAILCONE/BAGGAGE AREA.  DEBRIS WAS FOUND NEAR OUTLET.  LINE WAS REPLACED AND A LOW SPOT WAS ELIMINATED.  THE GRAVITY FUEL CAP IS ALSO A RELIEF VALVE IN CASE OF FUEL EXPANSION.  THE EXPANDED FUEL WOULD DRAIN INTO THE AFFECTED DRAIN TUBE.
