## Discrepancy

(CAN) DEFECT: ON CLIMB OUT, "L FUEL LO PRESS" MSG WAS ON AS PER DEFECT 309471. THE "L EJECTOR MAIN" EICAS MASTER CAUTION CAME ON AND L ENGINE RUNNING ROUGH. "FUEL IMBALANCE" EICAS CAME ON, CENTER FUEL TANK NOW @ 1600 LBS. LT ENGINE SHUT DOWN CARRIED OUT.  RECTIFICATION: AFTER INVESTIGATION, FOUND A COUPLING DISCONNECTED ON MAIN LT ENGINE FUEL FEED LINE LOCATED IN THE CENTER TANK. REASON WHY THE CENTER TANK WAS @ 1600 LBS AND CAUSED AN IMBALANCE.   FOUND SLEEVE/COUPLING DAMAGED.  NEW COUPLING ASSEMBLY REINSTALLED PROPERLY ON ENGINE FUEL FEED LINE, ENGINE RUNS, LEAK CHECK CARRIED OUT AND ACFT BACK IN SERVICE
