A fuel system for an internal combustion engine includes a nozzle, a fuel pump, a spill valve assembly, and a pumping control unit. The spill valve assembly includes a first spill valve and a second spill valve fluidly in parallel between a plunger cavity in the fuel pump and a low pressure space. A pumping control unit commands closing of the first spill valve and then the second spill valve to adjust the spill valve assembly to start pressurization in the fuel pump, and commands opening the first spill valve to end pressurization in the fuel pump. A pumping duration is determined based on a timing of the commanded closing of the second spill valve and a timing of the commanded opening of the first spill valve.

An engine comprising: a fuel injection device including a rack and an actuator, the rack being configured to regulate the amount of fuel injected to a combustion chamber, the actuator being configured to control the position of the rack; and a control device that controls fuel injection performed by the fuel injection device based on an instructed revolution number, and that performs a dither control on the actuator, wherein the control device has information of a revolution number variation region that is based on the relationship between a dither frequency in the dither control and an engine revolution number, and upon determining that the instructed revolution number is within the revolution number variation region, changes at least one of the dither frequency and the instructed revolution number. Thus, an engine capable of reducing a periodic variation in engine speed which may be caused by a dither control is provided.

A fuel injection pump includes a plunger, a plunger barrel which supports the plunger, a body which houses the plunger and the plunger barrel, a plate which covers an opening formed on the body, a control lever turnably attached near the plate, and an adjuster bolt which abuts against the control lever to restrict turn of the control lever and is supported by a stay disposed on the plate.
