## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING CROSS START OF LT ENGINE THE ENGINE FIRE WARNING ANNUNCIATED AFTER FEW SECONDS.  ENGINE WAS SHUTDOWN WITH CLA AND ENGINE FIRE 1 HANDLE WAS PULLED TO EXTINGUISH FIRE.  INSPECTION CONFIRMED EVIDENCE OF FIRE AND A LEAK CHECK CONFIRMED A LEAK AT FUEL NOZZLE 14.  THE B-NUT WAS NOT ADEQUATELY TIGHTENED.  NUT WAS TIGHTENED BUT IT LEAKED AGAIN DURING WET MOTORING.  NUT REMOVAL REVEALED A DAMAGED O-RING.
