## Discrepancy

FUEL PUMP FOUND LEAKING.  HAD TO BLEED THE FUEL SYSTEM BEFORE FACT WHEN NO MAINTENANCE HAD BEEN ACCOMPLISHED TO THE FUEL SYSTEM AT THAT POINT IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FUEL PUMP SEAL WAS LEAKING.  SUSPECT THAT WAS WHY THE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE PULLED AFTER HAVING SAT SEVERAL DAYS.  REMOVED PUMP.
