In any of a number of variations, a vehicle may include a "Stop/Start" system which may automatically shut down a vehicle's engine when it is idle and may restart the engine as soon as the accelerator is engaged or the brake or clutch is released which may reduce the amount of time that the engine spends idling. The "Stop/Start" system may reduce the amount of fuel that a vehicle may consume when, for example, but not limited to, a vehicle may be subject to starting and stopping frequently while in traffic or stopping for traffic lights.
Referring to FIG. 1 , in any of a number of variations, a Stop/Start vehicle 20 may include an engine 22 which may be connected to a starter 24, a belt driven alternator/starter 26 and a transmission 28. The starter 24 may be used to turn on or start a vehicle's engine 22. Additionally, a belt driven alternator / starter 26 may be connected to the engine 22 which may reduce a vehicle's 20 fuel consumption. The belt driven alternator/starter 26 may be attached to a battery 30 of any of a number of variations.
The transmission 28 may include, but is not limited to, a pump 32, a torque converter 34, a clutch 36, and a plurality of gears 38 which may drive the wheels 40 of a vehicle. The mechanical pump 32 which may be adjacent the engine 22 may be used to circulate oil (not illustrated) through the transmission 28 and/or its cooling system (not illustrated). The torque converter 34 may be adjacent the mechanical pump 32 and may be used to transfer power from the engine 22 to the driveline. The clutch 36 may control the transmission of power from the engine 22 to the plurality of gears 38. The plurality of gears 38 may drive the vehicle wheels 40.
Referring again to FIG. 1 , in any of a number of variations, a pressurized fluid accumulator 44 may be used in conjunction with an engine's mechanical oil pump 60 to lubricate the engine 22.

The mechanical oil pump 60 may lubricate various engine components including, but not limited to, one or more main bearings 58 and one or more crankshaft bearings 49 by dispersing oil 62 through one or more passages 64, which may be under pressure from the mechanical pump 60.
In any of a number of variations, a force feed system 74, a variation of which is illustrated in FIG. 4, may comprise a mechanical oil pump 60 which may deliver oil 62 to various engine components including, but not limited to, one or more main bearings 58, the crankshaft 48, the one or more pistons 46, and one or more connecting rod bearings 56 by dispersing oil 62 through one or more oil passages 64 which may be under pressure from the mechanical oil pump 60.
In any of a number of variations, a full force feed system 76, a variation of which is illustrated in FIG. 5, may comprise a mechanical pump 60 which may lubricate various engine components including, but not limited to, one or more main bearings 58, one or more rod bearings 56, one or more crankshaft bearings 49, one or more pistons 46, one or more piston pins 52, and valve mechanisms (not illustrated), through one or more oil passages 64 which may be under pressure from the mechanical pump 60. In any of a number of variations, a pressurized fluid accumulator 44 may be used in conjunction with an engine's lubrication system's 72, 74, 76 mechanical oil pump 60 which may help to further lubricate the main bearings 58 of the engine 22, prior to re-start. This may prevent or reduce main bearing 58 failures due to increased amounts of re-starts. The pressurized fluid accumulator 44 may be attached to the oil passage 64 upstream of the mechanical oil pump 60.
Referring to FIGS. 2, 6, and 7, in any of a number of variations, the pressurized fluid accumulator 44 may include a pressure chamber 66 which may be attached to a pressure sensor 68. The pressurized fluid accumulator 44 may be attached to a solenoid 70, a variation of which is illustrated in FIG. 6, which may be used to control the flow of oil 62 from the pressurized fluid accumulator 44. In a number of variations, the solenoid 70 may be located downstream of the oil pump 60, and the pressure sensor 68 may be located downstream of the solenoid 70, a variation of which is illustrated in FIG. 7. The solenoid 70 may be used to assist the pressurized fluid accumulator 44 to achieve quick fluid pressure for lubrication of the engine 22. Any number of solenoids 70 may be used including, but not limited to, a high flowing/low leaking solenoid valve such as the Eco-Launch™ Solenoid Valve. An Eco- Launch™ solenoid valve may comprise an accumulator or bottle of pressurized oil and a solenoid valve that may control the flow of oil from the accumulator 44. The Eco-Launch™ Solenoid valve may have low leakage which may allow the Eco-Launch™ Solenoid valve to maintain sufficient pressure and volume in the accumulator in a "stop" event. The solenoid 70 may include a body 82 which may be any of a number of shapes including, but not limited to, a cylindrical shape, a variation of which is illustrated in FIG. 6. The solenoid 70 may also include a nozzle 84 which may be any of a number of shapes including, but not limited to, a cylindrical shape.
