## Discrepancy

AFTER ENG START & ADVANCING THROTTLES FOR INITIAL TAXI, WE EXPERIENCED A VERY STRONG FUEL ODOR.  ACCOMPLISHED STEP 5 OF TSI  PACK BURN OUT REF AMM 21-53-00-7.  RAN ENGINES REF JRH AND TAXIED A/C FOR HIGH POWER RUN WITH ALL BLEEDS AND PACKS ON.  NO FUEL SMELL WAS NOTED.  DURING HIGH POWER RUN, PRESSURIZED A/C TO 4 PSI DP AND ALSO NO FUEL SMELL NOTED A/C OK FOR SERVICE.
