## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER DEPARTURE DURING CLIMB, THE PILOT NOTICED SLIGHT POWER LOSS ON THE LT ENGINE WHICH SLOWLY DECAYED UNTIL TORQUE WAS AT 100LBS AT WHICH TIME THE PROP WAS FEATHERED. THE CREW ELECTED TO LEAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING AS ALL OTHER INDICATIONS WERE GREEN AND THEY WANTED THE GENERATOR RUNNING AS ICING CONDITIONS WERE FORECAST.  UPON INSPECTION BY MAINTENANCE, IT WAS DISCOVERED THE PY LINE FROM THE PROP GOVERNOR TO THE FCU WAS CRACKED. THE LINE WAS REPLACED GROUND RUNS CARRIED OUT AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
