Abstract
A clutch control system for automobiles comprising a clutch actuating member for actuating a clutch positioned between an engine output shaft and a transmission input shaft, and a suction pressure operated actuator for moving a clutch actuating member to a clutch releasing position. A detecting circuit is provided for detecting a negative differential coefficient of the engine speed and generating a corresponding output. A vacuum control valve is provided in a line to the clutch actuator to operate the clutch release. The line is also provided with a holding valve which is closed when the detecting circuit detects the negative differential coefficient of the engine speed to thereby stop the clutch engaging movement of the actuator momentarily so as to prevent the engine speed from falling off.
