## Discrepancy

CAPTAIN REPORTED THAT BEFORE TAXING, THE LEFT RUDDER WAS NOT MOVED FREELY. MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL PERFORMED THE FIM 27-21 TASK 806 PROCEDURE, DETECTING A SCREW OUT OF POSITION JAMMING THE PEDAL FROM THE BOTTOM UP TO THE CAPTAIN LEFT PEDAL COVER; SO THE SCREW WAS REPOSITIONED IAW AMM 27-21-00, TESTED CORRECT.
