## Discrepancy

(CAN) THE AIRCRAFT WAS STARTED AND WARMED UP. THE PILOT THEN BEGAN TO SPOOL THE AIRCRAFT UP FROM GROUND IDLE TO FLIGHT IDLE, HOWEVER NOTHING HAPPENED. THIS WAS TRIED A FEW TIMES BUT STILL NO RESPONSE. OTHER TROUBLESHOOTING WAS PERFORMED WITH NO FINDINGS. THE FUEL CONTROL UNIT (FCU) IN QUESTION WAS REMOVED AND AN OVERHAULED UNIT WAS INSTALLED. THE DEFECT WAS RECTIFIED.  (TC NR 20070119008)
