ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the idle speed of an internal combustion engine includes an adjustment responsive to a steering wheel angle sensor or a steering wheel torque sensor. The steering wheel angle sensor and the steering wheel torque sensor predict a power steering pump torque requirement which is used to minimize engine speed fluctuations.
