Abstract: The invention proposes a fuel injection apparatus with a fuel injection valve, wherein the fuel injection valve has at least one injection opening and at least one valve element for closing the at least one injection opening, wherein the valve element is controlled by means of a servohydraulic valve (131), wherein the servohydraulic valve has a control piston (123) that is supported in moving fashion, wherein the control piston disconnects a control chamber (116) from a high-pressure chamber (120), wherein at least one first partial region (117) of the control chamber (116) can be emptied in every position of the control piston (123) via a line (110) provided with an outlet throttle (113), and wherein at least one second partial region (119) of the control chamber can be filled with fuel in every position of the control piston via an inlet throttle (115) so that depending on the filling of the control chamber (116), in a first position, the control piston (123) disconnects a first connection (125) of the high
