PCT No. PCT/AU85/00176 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 24, 1986 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 24, 1986 PCT Filed Aug. 1, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO86/00960 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 13, 1986.A method and apparatus for metering fuel to an engine wherein a continuous supply of fuel is provided by a pump (14) to a fixed capacity chamber (11) and gas under pressure is admitted periodically to said chamber to maintain in the chamber a pressure not greater than the fuel pressure, so that fuel will flow into the chamber as long as there is a pressure differential between the gas in the chamber and the fuel supply. A delivery port (20) in said chamber is open for substantially the duration of the period that gas is admitted to the chamber so that the fuel in the chamber at the time of admission of gas thereto, and fuel entering the chamber during the period of admission of gas, is delivered from the delivery port (20) to the engine. The pressure differential between the fuel supply and the gas in the chamber is controlled in accordance with the fuel demand of the engine to control the quantity of fuel delivered each cycle to the engine. A preferred form of each of a fuel referencing regulator (34), a fuel pressure regulator ( 16) and a metering and injection unit (25) are also disclosed.
