Flew my 206 approx a 1 hour flight at 3000 feet engine ran perfect no issues. As I was taxiing in
I noticed at idle the engine seemed a little rough. Went to the fuel pump and topped off with fuel. When I restarted the engine it would only run with the electric boost pump on. Let it run for about 5 minutes taxied to the front of the FBO and shut it off. Started it again and taxied to a parking spot, still would only run on the electric pump. We contacted the maintenance shop on the field and since it was after 5pm the mechanic said he would look at it in the AM. Got a rental car and drove home. The mechanic called me the next day and said the aircraft ran perfect. Does anyone have an idea what happened? I had them pull the fuel pump and fuel controller to have them tested.
Thanks
