INSPECT/CHECK
MAXIMUM SERVICEABLE LIMITS
REMARKS
1.Examine the upper starter duct, look for:


A.Cracks
None permitted
If a crack is found, do the weld repair at the next maintenance visit, before 6 months, 1000 Flight Hours (FH) or 1000 Flight Cycles (FC), whichever occurs first or replace the duct (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-000-041) and (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-400-041).
B.Nicks, scratches, chafing in straight section
Maximum depth must be less than 10 percent of the wall thickness of the duct. There is no limit to the number of nicks, scratches or chafing permitted in the straight section of the duct.
If the damage is less than the allowable limits, repair the damage at the next 750 FH, 750 FC or 4 calendar months, whichever occurs first. If the damage is more than the allowable limits, replace the duct (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-000-041) and (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-400-041).

2.Examine the bushings in the brackets, look for:


A.Wear
0.26 IN. (6.6 MM) maximum inside diameter of the bushing.
If the wear is more than the acceptable limits, replace the duct (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-000-041) and (Ref. AMM TASK 80-13-43-400-041).
