## Discrepancy

MAG WAS RECEIVED FOR 500 HR INSP.  WHEN DISASSEMBLED THE ELECTROSYSTEMS MFG DISTRIBUTOR BLOCK WAS FOUND CRACKED NEAR THE BEARING, AROUND THE ELECTRODES AND AT THE HOLES BETWEEN THE ELECTRODES.  UNKNOWN HOW MANY HOURS ON PART, THE DIST BLOCK WAS REPLACED, THE 500 HR INSP WAS CARRIED OUT AND THE MAG RETURNED TO SERVICE.
