Abstract

An apparatus for conveying high pressure actuating fluid such as engine lubricating oil to hydraulically actuated electronically controlled injectors (HEUIs) in an internal combustion engine. The apparatus has a fluid rail with outlet ports to communicate the actuating fluid to the injectors which is adapted to be mountable on an engine so as to be located in use above the actuating fluid inlets of the injectors. A fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine incorporating such apparatus is also described.
