1. A method of controlling an engine of a vehicle to set a speed of the engine to a predetermined idle speed, the method comprising:
determining, by a controller of the engine, an aeration of an oil utilized by a valve lift system configured to control valve lift of the engine; determining, by the controller, whether the oil aeration is greater than a predetermined aeration threshold indicative of a potential stall of the engine due to valve lift loss; when the oil aeration is greater than the predetermined aeration threshold, commanding, by the controller, the engine speed to an intermediate idle speed for a predetermined time period, the intermediate idle speed being greater than the predetermined idle speed; and in response to the predetermined time period expiring, commanding, by the controller, the engine speed to the predetermined idle speed. |
