In certain embodiments, a fuel injector includes a wall separating a fuel passage from an air passage. The fuel injector also includes a fuel injection port extending from a first side of the wall to a second side of the wall for injecting a flow of fuel from the fuel passage into a flow of air in the air passage. In addition, the fuel injector includes first and second feedback lines extending from a downstream end of the fuel injection port to an upstream end of the fuel injection port. The first and second feedback lines are disposed on opposite sides of the fuel injection port. In addition, the first and second feedback lines are disposed entirely within the wall.
