Abstract
A fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine with a reservoir for pressurised fuel and at least one fuel injector which has a solenoid activated valve to control fuel pressure therein, and including a control piston linked to the injector's valving member and defining a control space communicated with the injector's fuel, and further including a pressure regulating valve assembly with another solenoid activated valve operated independently of the injector's solenoid valve and which is located between the reservoir and the fuel injector for selectively creating different flow control configurations to regulate fuel pressure delivered to the injector. The two solenoid activated devices providing an injector control for providing flexible opening operation of the injector at more than one fuel pressure level.
