## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING DAILY INSPECTION WITH COWLING OPEN AFTER REPAIRING A SNAG,THE HELIX WINDING (FLEX HOUSING) WAS CRACKED AND PULLED BACK FROM THE SWAGGED END AT THE POWER CONTROL ASSEMBLY ON THE RT ENGINE. CABLE ASSY REPLACED.  NOTE: CRACK HAD NO EFFECT ON A/C AT THIS TIME, BUT IT MAY HAVE JAMMED THROTTLE CONTROL IF UNDETECTED.
