A fuel injector comprises a nozzle 12 with a body 24 defining an internal bore 28 in which a needle 30 is axially moveable and having a spray extremity with injection orifice(s). The needle has an axially symmetrical shaft portion 32 which is tapered at an end 34 and defines a male seating face 44 that cooperates with a female tapered seating face 46 in the needle bore, upstream of the injection orifice(s). The needle includes a protruding annular collar 36 that divides the internal volume of the bore, the collar including substantially symmetrically configured passage means (36.1, Figure 2). A control valve arrangement 14, including a three-way valve, pilots the needle via a control chamber 50. The injector includes a detection circuit 58 in which the needle forms a switch. The female tapered seating face is conical and the male tapered seating face includes a conical surface having an angle (β, Figure 2) of greater than 75°. The control valve may include a fuel escape path (80, Figure 3) connecting the control chamber to a low pressure side of the injector and a fuel feed path (78, Figure 3) connecting the control chamber to a high pressure side of the injector.
