A fuel injection system employing continuous injection into the induction manifold for varying the fuel-air ratio during the warm-up phase of the engine. A pivoting flap responds to the air flow through the induction tube and rotates a metering valve core. Openings in this valve core cooperate with openings in the valve cylinder to form a metering valve aperture of variable cross-section. The pressure differential across this aperture influences the metered fuel quantity and this pressure differential can be varied during the warm-up phase of the engine. The variation in the pressure differential is accomplished by heating a bi-metallic spring which disengages from the closure element of a diaphragm valve, increasing the closing bias thereof. The resulting increase in fuel pressure downstream of the metering aperture displaces a piston which removes the additional biasing force on another diaphragm valve, permitting the reduction of fuel pressure upstream of the metering aperture with the net effect of a reduction of the pressure differential across the metering aperture and a corresponding reduction of the metered fuel quantity, i.e., a leaning out of the fuel-air mixture.
