A method of operating an engine of a vehicle having a powertrain having a transmission is described. The method includes, during a driver tip-out condition where the vehicle is decelerating, adjusting engine output based on a gear of the transmission, and reducing airflow to reduce engine torque output without reducing torque by retarding spark timing, following the driver tip-out, until airflow reaches a minimum value below which combustion may be degraded; and upon airflow reach said minimum value, retarding spark timing to further reduce engine output.
