## Discrepancy

(CAN) TIME EXPIRED SUPERCHARGER WAS REPLACED WITH AN OVERHAULED UNIT AND THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF OIL LEAKS ON THE ENGINE GROUND TEST RUN UP. AFTER 3.3 HOURS OF FLIGHT TIME, THE FLIGHT CREW FOUND OIL INDICATOR FLOAT LEVEL LOW ON THE NEXT PRE-FLIGHT INSPECTION. THE ENGINE GEARBOX AND SUPERCHARGER WERE REPLACED WITH OVERHAULED UNITS
