Abstract
A fuel injector for use with LPG or other volatile fuels has fuel inlets through a cylindrical wall of a valve group tube assembly. Fuel venting is along a longitudinal axis of the fuel injector to an end opposite the injection end. An O-ring retaining cup is welded to the tube assembly above and below the fuel inlets to seal these members and to maintain alignment of holes in the cup with the fuel inlets.
