What was found

ON NOV 20, 2003, THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED LOW FUEL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHTS. UPON INVESTIGATION OF THE DISCREPANCY WE CHANGED THE FUEL FILTERS BECAUSE THE FELT SEAL HAD CONE UNGLUED AND CLOGGED THE FILTER. THE AIRCRAFT WAS IN FOR A INSPECTION OF THE 15 NOV 2003, AND THE FUEL FILTER WERE CHANGED DURING THIS INSPECTION. THE AIRCRAFT HAD ONLY FLOWN TWO LEGS OF A TRIP BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. SPOKE WITH SEVERAL OTHER OPERATORS AND FOUND THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED TO TEM WHEN USING THIS SAME PN OR FILTER.
