## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE CARRYING OUT AN ENGINE INSPECTION, THE RT LOWER ENGINE MOUNTING FOOT WAS FOUND TO BE PULLING AWAY FROM THE COMPRESSOR CASE.  3 OUT OF 8 STUDS THAT SECURE THE MOUNT FOOT TO THE  FLANGE HAD  MISSING NUTS.  THERE WAS A 0.75 GAP BETWEEN THE FORWARD PART OF THE MOUNT FOOT AND THE COMPRESSOR CASING, THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL ALLOWING  A MAXIMUM GAP OF 0.2.  THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL DETAIL INSPECTION CRITERIA FOR THIS LOCATION. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
