PRESSURE CONTROL FOR FUEL INJECTORS

In one instance, disclosed herein is a method for controlling a fuel injector of an engine system, the method including: applying a first current to a spill valve solenoid to move a spill valve of the fuel injector to a closed spill position; reducing the first current applied to the spill valve solenoid to move the spill valve to an at least partially-open position; determining a dwell duration for the fuel injector based on an expected fuel pressure of the fuel injector; and after the determined dwell duration, increasing the first current applied to the spill valve solenoid to return the spill valve to the closed spill position.
