What was found

(CAN) GOVERNOR LEVER P/N 350A57-1476-20 WAS FOUND ON FCU WHERE LEVER P/N 350A57-1472-20 SHOULD HAVE BEEN. UPON CONFIRMATION WITH MFG THIS WAS CONFIMED. AS THIS ACFT CAME TO US, ON B2 S/N 1685 WE ASSUMED THAT THE INSTALLATION WAS CORRECT. THE RIGGIN WAS WAY OUT AND WE COULD NOT REACH THE REQUIRED RPM. LEVER WAS REPLACED, RIGING WAS CARRIED OUT AND THE ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
