A method and apparatus for correcting the fuel quantity delivered by a fuel injection apparatus to an internal combustion engine, in particular for correcting the full-load fuel quantity per stroke, whereby a control value corresponding to the fuel injection quantity per time unit is formed and is converted into a control value corresponding to the fuel injection quantity by means of division of a value dependent on the rpm, the injection quantity per stroke being corrected by means of an adjustment of the fuel quantity control device of the fuel injection apparatus in accordance with the deviation of this converted control value from a set-point value.
