Narrative:
In range; right engine fuel pump was selected to low; fuel flow increased above normal to about 150; the engine began to run rough and the plane sharply yawed. I then leaned the engine and it improved slightly. Upon landing; the power was pulled out and the engine roughness increased. We then made a 180 to back-taxi off the runway; the engine then shut down on its own; following the shutdown we had a strong burning smell. We called operations a few times to no answer. Given the strong burning smell; we decided it was safest to deplane. I then shut the plane down told the passengers to please exit the plane to the rear left. I exited through the crew door and assisted the passengers exiting. Once the passengers were away from the plane and safe; I then called operations control to notify them of the situation and for them to call ZZZ to get transportation for the passengers to the terminal. I then called approach on the cell phone to let them know of the situation to prevent any inbound traffic conflicts.after speaking with contract maintenance at ZZZ; the cause is likely a faulty fuel pump.
