Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for controlling shifting of a vehicle having an automated manual transmission. In the system and method, an amount of fuel being provided to a first grouping of cylinders is reduced, where the first grouping of cylinders are fewer than all of the available cylinders; the first grouping of cylinders are placed in an engine braking mode; a first gear of the vehicle transmission is disengaged; an amount of fuel being provided to a second grouping of cylinders which does not include the first grouping of cylinders is reduced; engine speed is reduced by braking; and a second gear of the transmission is engaged.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed that include an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders operable by a valve actuation mechanism. Staging of engine operating conditions is disclosed to facilitate exit from and/or entrance into a cylinder deactivation event.

Abstract: A diesel engine crankcase ventilation filter is provided by a flat low profile filter housing extending in a horizontal plane and having an upper planar horizontal surface, a lower planar horizontal surface, and side surfaces extending between the upper and lower surfaces. A planar horizontal flat panel filter element extends parallel to the upper and lower surfaces. The housing has an upper plenum between the flat panel filter element and the upper surface, and a lower plenum between the flat panel filter element and the lower surface, an inlet receiving oil and air from the diesel engine and supplying same along an inlet path to the upper plenum to flow downwardly through the flat panel filter element to the lower plenum, a first outlet outputting air along a first outlet path from the lower plenum, and a second outlet outputting oil along a second outlet path from the lower plenum.

Abstract: A diesel engine crankcase ventilation filter is provided by a flat low profile filter housing having an inlet receiving oil and air from the diesel engine, an outlet returning air to the engine, a drain returning separated oil to the engine, and a flat panel filter element in the housing receiving the oil and air from the inlet, separating the oil from the air, and passing the air to the outlet and passing the oil to the drain.
