An acoustic fuel injector system comprises a DC-to-DC converter (14) for supplying a regulated voltage to a frequency controlled oscillator (16) which drives the injector valve (18) or valves. The converter comprises a flyback oscillator (28) including a switching transistor (32) and a transformer (34, 36) for applying rectified current pulses of variable amplitude and occurrence rate to an output capacitor (42). A variable impedance device (50) in the input circuit to the flyback oscillator is controlled by a feedback signal (68) from the output circuit (30) to vary the cycle rate of the flyback oscillator to maintain output voltage at a desired value. The feedback signal is coupled to the oscillator control circuit input to effect a variable regulated output voltage which is relatively high upon injector turn-on but decays to a lower operating level thereafter.
