Abstract:
Various systems and methods are described for controlling an engine in a vehicle, the engine being coupled to a transmission. One example method comprises, under selected braking conditions, shutting-off the engine and spinning-down the engine to rest while the vehicle is traveling, and in response to a foot-off-brake event, restarting the engine by at least partially engaging the transmission and adjusting engine torque control actuators.

Claim (Index 21):
A method for controlling a vehicle engine coupled to a transmission, comprising:\n in response to a first condition, restarting the engine by at least partially engaging the transmission to push-start and assist the engine in spinning-up from rest while a vehicle is traveling; when providing increased push-starting transmission torque, positioning a throttle to a first position; and when providing less push-starting transmission torque, positioning the throttle to a second, different position.
