Abstract
A fuel injection nozzle for supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine includes an outwardly opening valve member having a head which co-operates with a seating formed on a tubular member. The head is lifted from the seating to allow fuel flow to the assciated engine. The tubular member is also slidable within a bore and defines orifices which are exposed beyond the bore to allow fuel flow to the engine before the valve head is lifted from the seating. Improved atomization of the fuel at low pressure is therefore obtained.
