## Discrepancy

DURING TAXI OUT,  A PASSING AIRCRAFT REPORTED A FIRE IN THE RIGHT ENGINE.  NO FIRE INDICATIONS IN THE COCKPIT. THE CREW PULLED THE NR 2 ENGINE FIRE HANDLE,  BUT DID NOT ACTIVATE THE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS.  RETURNED TO GATE WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED. MAINTENANCE REINSTATED THE NR 2 ENGINE FIRE HANDLE IAW AMM 26-21-00, & ACCOMPLISHED A NR 2 ENGINE FIRE DETECTION SYS  OPS TEST IAW AMM 26-11-00, & FIRE BOTTLE INSPECTION IAW AMM 26-20-00.  REPLACED THE NR 2 ENGINE.
