A fuel injector has a metering valve arranged to open under a predetermined feed pressure which constitutes a first threshold pressure, and to remain open in response to said feed pressure increasing so as to deliver fuel to fuel utilization means. The flow rate of fuel passing through the injector is metered to feed said utilization means so long as the feed pressure remains below a second threshold pressure greater than the first threshold pressure. Above the second threshold pressure, the metering valve behaves like a fixed diaphragm as a function of the fluid flow sections formed therethrough. Individual adjustment means are provided so as to enable said second threshold pressure to be adjusted for each injector to ensure that fuel is injected at a uniform flow rate by all of the injectors in a combustion chamber.
