ABSTRACT:
A control system for the clutch of a torque converter to allow direct drive operation of the torque converter in more than one transmission drive train speed level. The fluid pressure normally causing coupling of the clutch is interrupted by a blocking device when a change in drive trains occurs resulting in a lower fluid pressure on one of the drive train operating clutches, and that interruption is prolonged by delaying either the imposition of the high fluid pressure on the blocking device in one embodiment or the imposition of the fluid pressure on the clutch in another embodiment.
