Abstract

A fuel injection system having at least two different, high system pressures for an internal combustion engine, includes a first central pressure reservoir for the lower system pressure and includes a second central pressure reservoir, supplied from a high-pressure pump, for the higher system pressure, both pressure reservoirs being connectable by line to the injector of each cylinder, and to increase the efficiency, a two-stage high-pressure pump, by whose lower stage the first pressure reservoir and by whose higher stage the second pressure reservoir are supplied.
