ABSTRACT:
A master clutch control system/method for controlling engagement and disengagement of a vehicular master clutch, preferably a multiple disc wet clutch (14) is provided. Below a reference vehicle speed (OS<REF.sub.OS) and/or a reference engine speed (ES<REF.sub.ES), the clutch is automatically controlled as a function of throttle displacement (THL) while above the reference vehicle speed (OS>REF.sub.OS) and/or reference engine speed (ES>REF.sub.ES) the clutch is controlled as a function of the position of a manual engage/disengage switch (50) biased to the engage selection position thereof.
