## Discrepancy

ENGINE NR 2 MOMENTARILY FAILED DURING IDLE DESCENT AT FL200, 280 KNOTS.  CREW FELT AIRCRAFT YAW AND REPORTED N2 AT APPROXIMATELY 30 PERCENT.  UPON IGNITION ACTIVATION, ENGINE RELIT ITSELF AND CONTINUED TO OPERATE NORMALLY.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE NR 2 EEC (ELECTRONIC ENGINE CONTROL), LOW / HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL METERING UNIT.  VENDOR REPORTED THE FUEL PUMP WAS A CONFIRMED FAILURE.
