Abstract
A governor system for an engine motive fluid induction system is shown as having a solenoid operated valving assembly communicating with a source of vacuum and with a plurality of vacuum motors operatively connected to variably positionable throttle valves of the induction system; an electronic control sensitive to the speed of a monitored parameter is effective to controllably energize the solenoid valving assembly to, in turn, regulate the magnitude of vacuum directed thereby to the vacuum motors and consequently govern the then permissible amount of opening of the throttle valves.
