An engine and transmission control system is responsive to manipulation of manually operated control devices for the implement of an agricultural tractor (20,22,26) which can cause actions which result in increased load on the vehicle engine (10) such as when the implement engages into the ground, before the engine (10) actually begins to be effected by the load increase. The control system monitors manipulation of control devices (20,22,26) and engine load, and when engine load decreases, the system stores the identity and displacement direction of the manipulated control device (20,22,26). When the same control device (20,22,26) is then manipulated in the opposite direction, the control system will begin to temporarily boost or raise engine RPM and decrease the transmission ratio in anticipation of the expected load. After the control system has boosted the engine RPM, it monitors whether or not the engine speed was boosted high enough to prevent the engine speed from dropping below a threshold. If the engine speed drops below the threshold, then the control system will increase the amount of engine speed boost to be applied the next time that control device (20,22,26) is manipulated. <IMAGE> |
