ABSTRACT:
A shift control for a four-speed automatic transmission has a hydraulic pump for supplying pressurized fluid to the control valves including a manual valve, a 1-2 shift valve and a throttle valve. The manual valve directs fluid to a low pressure regulator valve during automatic four-speed drive operation and to a governor valve during all forward drive operations. The 1-2 shift valve responds to throttle valve pressure and the higher of governor pressure or the output of the low pressure regulator valve during automatic four-speed drive operation, whereby on part-throttle acceleration, the 1-2 shift valve is upshifted by the output of the low pressure regulator valve so that a second gear start for the vehicle is provided. In full throttle acceleration, the transmission starts in first gear due to the increased throttle pressure bias to provide better vehicle performance.
