## Discrepancy

AFTER CRUISE AT FL380 FOR APPROX 3.5 HOURS, PULLED POWER BACK TO 70 PERCENT FOR DESCENT TO DESTINATION, NOTICED ABNORMAL SOUND AS WELL AS ABNORMAL VIBRATION FROM NR1 ENGINE. SOUND AND VIBRATION CONTINUED FOR REMAINDER OF FLIGHT. ALL ENGINE INDICATORS WERE NORMAL. PERFORMED ENGINE RUNS. RAN UP NR1 FIRST AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED VIBRATION AND BUMP. AS YOU INCREASE POWER THE VIBRATION GOT WORSE. SHUT DOWN NR1 ENGINE. (NOTE: ALL INDICATIONS WERE NORMAL) RAN UP NR2 ENGINE AND THIS ENGINE PERFORMED SMOOTHLY AT ALL POWER SETTINGS. SHUT NR 2 ENGINE DOWN. STARTER GEN (NR1) VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY.  REMOVED NR1 STARTER-GEN P/N 23080-064, S/N Y10025 AND INSTALLED O/H STARTER-GEN P/N 23080-064 S/N Y30558. RAN BOTH ENGINES.
