Abstract

A rotary distributor fuel injection pump having a timing piston for controlling the fuel injection timing in accordance with opposed fuel pressures in advance and back pressure chambers at opposite ends of the piston, a restricted passage for supplying fuel at a restricted rate to the back pressure chamber, a pressure relief valve for limiting the back pressure, a dump valve for dumping the back pressure to advance the timing for starting and a rotary inlet metering valve having a bleed port connected to the back pressure chamber and a helical metering edge which cooperates with the bleed port to control the bleed rate and therefore the timing in relation to engine load to provide a light load advance or light load retard.
