English term or phrase: tip-in
my string:
Interactive coastdown tip-in flag


from web containing tip-in:

Hesitation upon tip-in after braking to a stop. This TSB will diminish the incidence of the bump while braking at a stop and reduce tip-in hesitation while accelerating from a stop and improves the delayed engagements.


I need another word for "tip-in" to understand it.

thanks!

more fuel than the apparent load will dictate
Explanation:
The only thing that the TPS is really doing is letting the ECU know if you are opening, or closing the throttle. This is important because on a modern, high performance engine, as you quickly open the throttle you need more fuel than the apparent lode will dictate. (map and rpm look up) This is know as “Tip In Fuel” or as it was known on a carburetor… “The accelerator Pump.” Without the tip in fuel… the engine would (minimum) cough and flame out. (too much air) At worst… the engine would have HORIBLE detonation, (pre-ignition) and burn holes in the tops of the pistons, crush the ring lands, bend the rods, or crush the crank bearings. (lot’s-O-bad stuff)"
