## Discrepancy

APPROXIMATELY 7 TO 8 MINUTES PRIOR TO LANDING WITH POWER AT IDLE, NR 1 ENGINE FIRE WARNING SOUNDED FOR APPROXIMATELY 1/4 SECOND.  THEN ABOUT 2 OR 3 MINUTES LATER, NR 1 ENGINE FIRE WARNING SOUNDED FOR ABOUT 1 SECOND.  NO OTHER ABNORMAL INDICATIONS.  ENGINE WAS NOT SHUT DOWN.  OPENED COWLING, FOUND NO SHORTS.  CLEANED CONNECTORS ON LOWER LOOP, TESTS OK.  SHOOK DOWN WIRING ON ENGINE.  COULD NOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM.  NR 1 FIRE DETECTION TESTS GOOD.
