ABSTRACT:
A brake activated accelerator override apparatus for an engine having a throttle plate pivotal between closed and open positions. First and second throttle levers are connected to the throttle plate. The first throttle lever is connected to the accelerator linkage for pivoting the throttle plate to an open position. A coupling spring is connected between the first and second throttle levers to jointly pivot the first and second throttle levers to the open position upon movement of the accelerator linkage and to permit independent movement of the second throttle lever to the closed position. A sensor detects actuation of the vehicle brakes and energizes an actuator connected to the second throttle lever to pivot the second throttle lever and the attached throttle plate to the closed position, independent of the first throttle lever. Preferably, the actuator is an electromechanical solenoid having an extensible plunger which is connected by a link to the second throttle lever.
