Unsafe Condition
Fuel leakage from the Number 7 fuel nozzle and support assembly, ignition of that leaking fuel, and liberation of oil from melted aluminum oil pressure and scavenge tube fittings and an additional aluminum oil scavenge line bolt can result in an uncontained engine fire and damage to the aircraft.
AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
Required Actions
Inspect the Number 7 fuel nozzle and support assembly for evidence of fuel leakage and burning until replacement with an improved sealing configuration per PW ASB A6153, Rev 1. Replace the aluminum oil tube fittings and an additional aluminum oil scavenge line bolt with steel fittings/bolt per PW ASB A6170, Rev 2 and A6169, Rev 2.
