Abstract: In a hydraulic valve comprising a spool, one or more band-shape check valves and an enclosing bolt or snout, the check valve may be compressed to the point of excessive wear or failure and may impede spool movement. The problem outlined is solved by an inventive hydraulic valve for use with a cam phasing apparatus of an internal combustion engine. The hydraulic valve comprises a hollow bolt or snout, check valves, and a spool disposed inside the bolt while still being able to shift axially within the bolt. The bolt and spool are configured to provide fluid passageways between the spool and the cam phasing apparatus depending on a translational displacement of the spool. Furthermore, the spool is configured to allow an oil flow through the fluid passageway, yet limit a compression of the band-type check valves.

Abstract: A startup/shutdown control module selectively generates an engine startup command when an engine of the vehicle is off. A starter control module applies power to a starter motor when the engine startup command is generated. A valve control module, in response to the generation of the engine startup command: operates intake valves of cylinders of the engine in a low lift mode when an engine temperature is less than a predetermined temperature; and operates the intake valves of the cylinders of the engine in a high lift mode when the engine temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature.
