## Discrepancy

FLT NR 1911 - IAH - THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO IAH AFTER TAKEOFF DUE TO UNEVEN FUEL BURN FROM FUEL TANKS.  THE NR 1 TANK WAS BURNING FASTER THAN OTHERS.  FUEL WAS DUMPED TO CONTROL BALANCE.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THAT THE NR 1 FUEL TRANSFER VALVE WAS NOT WORKING DUE TO A POPPED CIRCUIT BREAKER.  THE CIRCUIT BREAKER WAS RESET.  THE ENGINES WERE RUN FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AND FUEL BURN WAS NORMAL.  (Z)
