## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE PERFORMING PILATUS S/B 28-011,INSPECTION OF BOOST PUMP WIRES, SOME DAMAGE IN THE FORM OF A SMALL NICK WAS NOTED APPROX 7 INCHES FOR THE PUMP BODY. THE INSULATION APPEARED TO BE DAMAGED THROUGH TO THE CONDUCTOR. THE PUMP ASSY WAS REPLACED WITH AN OVERHAULED UNIT. RECORDS INDICATE THAT THESE PUMPS HAVE NEVER BEEN REMOVED AS THEY WERE MOD 'A' PUMPS SINCE NEW.
