## Discrepancy

DURING TRAINING FLIGHT,  ENGINE STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEM.  ACFT MADE A SAFE LANDING AND TAXIED TO RAMP.  UPON INITIAL INSPECTION, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE NR 2 CYLINDER FUEL INJECTION LINE HAD BECOME SEPARATED FROM WELD AT B-NUT ON FUEL NOZZLE.  LINE WAS REPLACED AND ACFT WAS RUN UP, ALL OPERATIONS WERE NORMAL.  PORBABLE CAUSE IS SUSPECTED TO BE A WEAK JOINT AT FITTING ON B-NUT.
