## Discrepancy

WHILE CRUISING AT 41,000', WE HEARD 3 CHIMES AND OBSERVED A RED L ENG PYLON OVHT ILLUMINATION. I TOLD MY SIC TO GRAB THE QRH AND ADVISED HIM I WILL TAKE RADIO COMMUNICATION DUTY. FOLLOWING THE CHECKLIST, WE PULLED THE LEFT THROTTLE TO IDLE AND STARTED A DESCENT TO 30,000'. APPROXIMATELY 15-20 SECONDS AFTER IDLE, THE LIGHT EXTINGUISHED. WE ELECTED TO LEAVE THE ENGINE AT IDLE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FLIGHT AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER PROBLEMS.
