Send us an Equipment Improvement Recommendation (EIR). You, the user, are the only one who can tell us what you don’t like about your equipment. Let us know why you don’t like the design or performance. Tell us why a procedure is hard to perform. Put it on an SF 368 (Product Quality Deficiency Report). Mail it to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750. A reply will be sent to you. CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any corrosion problem with the engine be reported so that improvements can be made to prevent the problem in the future. While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other materials such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling, or breaking of these materials may be a corrosion problem. If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using SF 368 (Product Quality Deficiency Report). Use of key words such as “corrosion,” “rust,” “deterioration,” or “cracking” will ensure that the information is identified as a CPC problem. SF 368 should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750. WP 0001 00-1
