Abstract
An accumulator type fuel injection system adapted to prevent engine trouble by making a judgement that fuel injection rate switching change-over valves provided correspondingly to fuel injection nozzles in cylinders, a valve for controlling the pressure in a low-pressure accumulator or means for detecting fuel pressures in accumulators gets out of order, and carrying out when any of these parts break down a control operation of a limp-home mode in which a region of an operation of an engine is limited. To provide such an accumulator type fuel injection system, a control means is formed so that, when a judgement that first control valves , a second control valve or pressure sensors for detecting the fuel pressures in the respective accumulators get out of order is given, the control means sets a discharge pressure of a fuel pump not higher than a permissible pressure in a second accumulator , and injects a fuel from fuel injection nozzles
