ABSTRACT:
A fuel pressure regulator for use in a fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine has a housing defining therein a fuel passage having upstream and downstream ends connected to a main fuel supply conduit and a fuel return pipeline, respectively. The fuel supply conduit is connected with fuel injectors at points upstream of the fuel pressure regulator. A first valve is provided in the fuel passage at a point downstream of a restriction also provided in the fuel passage. A fuel chamber is provided in the fuel passage between the restriction and the first valve. The first valve is opened when the fuel pressure in the fuel chamber exceeds a first predetermined pressure level to allow the fuel to flow from the fuel chamber to the return pipeline. A bypass fuel passage bypasses the restriction and has its downstream end connected to the fuel chamber. A second valve is provided in the bypass passage and is opened when the fuel pressure in the upstream end of the fuel passage exceeds a second predetermined pressure level higher than the first predetermined pressure level to allow the fuel to flow through the bypass passage.
