Abstract

A fuel injection nozzle of the inwardly opening type has an axially movable valve member engageable under the action of a spring, with a seating to prevent fuel flow through an outlet. The valve member engaged by a spring abutment and is slidable within a sleeve and when fuel under pressure is supplied to the nozzle forces are developed on the valve member and the sleeve which is urged into contact with a part located between the sleeve and the spring abutment. A leakage path is provided to prevent a build up of fuel pressure within an annular zone defined between the part and the valve member.
