    Abstract: The warranty managing process (10) includes a method of processing a customer claim against a manufacturer's product that includes the steps of inputting the claim through a computer (6) to a database (4) at a first management level (20), determining the value of the claim, and acting to approve or deny the claim at the first management level (20) when the value of the claim is below a first predetermined amount. A second management level (30) acts to review all claims input at the first management level (20) and acts to approve or deny the claim when the value of the claim is above the first predetermined amount and below a second predetermined amount. A third management level (40) acts to review all claims input at the first and second management levels (20, 30) and acts to approve or deny the claim when the value of the claim is above the second predetermined amount when the value of the claim is above the second predetermined amount.

    Abstract: A system and method for controlling an engine (10) in a vehicle which allows the vehicle operator to manually request a vehicle speed in excess of the established vehicle speed limit that includes establishing a normal vehicle speed limit, establishing a passing duration period, establishing a passing override reset interval, and controlling the engine in response to operator input to provide a greater vehicle speed for a cumulative period not greater than the passing duration period at any time during the passing override reset interval. The system and method may include the capability of establishing a passing speed increment and controlling the vehicle speed during passing to limit the vehicle to a speed not exceeding the normal vehicle speed limit plus the passing speed increment. The system and method may also include establishing a warning period and issuing a warning to the operator whenever the remaining passing speed time duration has dropped to an amount of time less than the warning period.

    Abstract: A method of controlling fuel delivery in a fuel injection system capable of performing a split injection includes comparing at least one engine operating temperature to a temperature threshold, and disabling split injection when at least one engine operating temperature exceeds the temperature threshold. Disabling split injection in this manner enhances cold temperature engine operation while providing a single injection at higher operating temperatures, as desired. Further, an engine (12) and a computer readable storage medium (28) having information stored thereon representing instructions executable by an engine controller (22) for comparing at least one engine operating temperature to a temperature threshold are also provided. The computer readable storage medium instructions disable split injection when at least one engine operating temperature exceeds the temperature threshold.

    Abstract: The combination of an intake air supply system with an internal combustion engine (10) having a charge air cooler, a cylinder charging air intake and an exhaust discharge is provided. The intake air supply system includes a Roots-type positive displacement blower (37) having inlet (38) and outlet (40) means and an exhaust gas driven turbo-compressor (41) connected in series with the blower (37). The intake air supply system further includes a bypass passage (58) connecting the blower inlet (38) and outlet (40) and a valve (54) in the bypass passage (58) to control the flow of fluid through the bypass (58). The valve (54) is operative to open and close the bypass passage (58) in response to engine operating parameters and to modulate the flow area of the passage (58) in response to the same engine operating parameters so as to infinitely vary the flow area between the open and closed positions of the valve (54). The valve (54) is modulated to operatively maintain the bypass passage (58) at least partially open at engine idle, whereby the valve means (54) permits bypass flow to recirculate air flow from the blower outlet (40) to the inlet (38) to reduce or limit the engine power absorbed by the blower (37) or to conduct additional air flow around the blower (37) directly from the turbo-compressor (41) to the engine intake to avoid the restriction of the blower (37) to increased charging air flow. A single valve means thus provides a dual function capability.
