## Discrepancy

SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF DURING CLIMB OPERATION THE NR 1 ENGINE SPREAD 28 HIGH AND ALL ENGINE INDICATORS BEGAN TO DECREASE INDICATING A FAILURE. THE ENGINE THEN RELIT DUE TO CONTINUOUS IGNITION BEING ENGAGED. 2 OR 3 MINUTES LATER THE SAME EVENT OCCURRED. THE AC RETURNED TO ELP WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. POST FLIGHT INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED. THE NR 1 FUEL CONTROL UNIT, ENGINE DRIVEN FUEL PUMP AND THE P&D VALVE WERE REMOVED AND REPLACED, OPS CHECKS GOOD. NO OTHER DEFECTS WERE NOTED. AC WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE. (K)
