## Discrepancy

A FUEL SMELL WAS REPORTED IN THE COCKPIT AND CABIN DURING TAXI OUT AT MAN.  WHILE RETURNING TO THE GATE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORTED FIRE COMING FROM THE NR 2 ENGINE.  THE NR 2 ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN.  EMERGENCY EVACUATION SLIDES WERE DEPLOYED AND PASSENGERS EXITED THE AIRCRAFT VIA THE SLIDES.  THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE ENGINE FIRE.  THE L-3 DOOR SLIDE DID NOT FULLY DEPLOY.  THE NR 2 ENGINE WILL BE REPLACED.  THE SDR WILL REMAIN OPEN FOR FINDINGS ON L-3 DOOR SLIDE.
