FIELD: mechanical engineering; fuel equipment of internal combustion engines. SUBSTANCE: proposed metering valve for fuel nozzle is secured on hollow body of nozzle and is operated by armature of electromagnet. Travel of armature to electromagnet is held back by stop adapted for fastening on hollow body. Said stop is secured by means of threaded member being turned onto thread of hollow body by calibrated tightening torque to adjust travel of armature to electromagnet. According to proposed method of adjustment, metering valve is installed in hollow body of nozzle and is operated by armature of electromagnet, and travel of armature to electromagnet is held back by stop secured on hollow body. Stop is installed inside hollow body by means of threaded member and travel of armature to electromagnet is adjusted by application of calibrated tightening torque to threaded member. EFFECT: provision of accurate adjustment of armature travel. 14 cl, 2 dwg
