Abstract
A heated fuel injection system includes a fuel injector assembly that receives the output of a diesel type fuel pump against a piston that normally biases an injector valve closed; the pump also supplying a fuel reservoir with high pressure fuel, the output of the reservoir being heated and fed to the injector valve to act upon it to move it open when the force of the piston acting against it is relieved by the pump output pressure as it increases to a predetermined level during the charging stroke; the fuel heat being derived from the engine exhaust gases during normal running operation, and by an electrical starter, during engine startup.
