## Discrepancy

AT ANNUAL INSPECTION, NOTED THE CENTER SECTION WAS LOOSE AT THE  BOLTS THAT HOLD THE CENTER SECTION TO THE HOT SIDE OF THIS UNIT. THIS HAS BEEN LEAKING AS THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF EXHAUST IN THIS AREA.  IT IS ASSUMED THESE BOLTS WERE LEFT LOOSE DURING INSTALLATION TO ALLOW TURBO BOLTS TO ALIGN DURING INSTALLATION.  SUBMITTER STATED ALL BOLTS AND NUTS SHOULD BE CHECKED FOR TORQUE BEFORE SAFTEYING AND/OR BENDING OVER LOCK TABS.
