Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1950400A1] The present invention relates to an arrangement and a method for switching off an engine (1) with a fuel injection system which comprises having injection means (8) for injecting the pressurised fuel in an accumulator tank into the respective combustion spaces of the engine, and a control unit (9) for executing a first switch-off process (A) of the engine which results in fiiel at an overpressure remaining in the tank after the engine has stopped. The method comprises the step of executing a second switch-off process (B) by stopping the supply of fuel to the tank while the injection means are activated so that the engine runs for a final period until a fuel pressure in the tank has decreased to a predetermined pressure level or the fuel in the tank is consumed to such an extent that no overpressure remains in the tank.
