Abstract
The invention concerns a relief device for a high-pressure direct-injection pump supplying petrol to an automobile vehicle engine injector manifold, the pump being supplied with fuel by a low-pressure electric fuel pump communicating with a fuel tank and the high pressure delivered being regulated by a pressure regulator, said pressure regulator taking the form of a three-way valve supplying fuel to the manifold via the fuel pump below a predetermined engine rotation speed threshold and then supplying the manifold via the top part of the injection pump when the engine speed is above the predetermined threshold.
