I hooked up at a sentence in an engine manual (in Italian...): "the valve makes the pressure difference constant". If you think about it, for the fuel to go through the injector opening at the same speed in all conditions, the pressure *difference* from one side of the injector hole (the injector's fuel chamber) and the other side (the cylinder entrance) must the constant... this is my suspicion. I'll have to take the car for revision soon, maybe I'll try to talk to someone there at Ford.
