Patent ID: 6855091

Claim:
A system for controlling a transmission throttle valve in a vehicle having a fuel management device which includes a rotatable throttle member having an idle state and a wide open throttle state, the transmission throttle valve connected to a transmission throttle valve cable, said system comprising: a cam assembly attachable to the rotatable throttle member; the transmission throttle valve cable connectable to said cam assembly, wherein when the rotatable throttle member is rotated from the idle state to the wide open throttle state, said cam assembly pulls the transmission throttle valve cable a correct cable pull distance; said cam assembly selectively positionable on the rotatable throttle member, wherein the position of said cam assembly determines a rate at which the transmission throttle valve cable is pulled said correct cable pull distance; and, wherein as the transmission throttle valve cable is pulled said correct cable pull distance said rate being one of (1) increasing as the rotatable throttle member is rotated from the idle state to the wide open throttle state, and (2) decreasing as the rotatable throttle member is rotated from the idle state to the wide open throttle state.
