## Discrepancy

ACFT EXPERIENCED A RT ENGINE GENERATOR FAILURE.  GENERATOR WOULD NOT RESET.  WHILE DIVERTING THE FUEL PUMPS CAME ON AUTOMATICALLY, THE IGNITERS CAME ON, LOSS OF POWER, AND ENGINE VIBRATION ON THE RT ENGINE.  THE CREW DECIDED TO DECLARE AN EMERGENCY AND LANDED.  ACFT LANDING WAS UNEVENTFUL.   FUEL OBSERVED LEAKING FROM THE RT ENGINE.  MX R & R RT STARTER GENERATOR, CARBON SEAL AND RUNNER.  R & R BROKEN ENGINE FUEL LINE FROM THE FCU TO THE OIL/FUEL HEAT EXCHANGER.  REPLACED ALL FIXED RIGID FUEL LINES.  ENGINE RUNS AND LEAK CHECKS WERE GOOD.
