Abstract: The invention is based on a fuel injection pump in which to supply a very rapid pressure rise in the interior of a fuel injection pump, a pressure valve controlling this pressure is modified such that upon cold starting of the engine, the pressure valve closes a bypass line at the feed pump and thus delivers all the fuel to the fuel injection pump.
