## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE TROUBLE SHOOTING APU PROBLEMS IT WAS NOTED THAT THE FUEL FILTER ASSY HAD BOTH ATTACHING POINTS BROKEN AND WAS HANGING THERE BY THE FUEL LINES. THE APPEARANCE OFF THE FRACTURES SEEM TO INDICATE THAT THE CRACK HAS BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE AS THERE APPEARS TO BE ALODINE INSIDE THE FRACTURED AREA OF THE ATTACHMENT LUGS. (TC# 20190529007)
