This will manually over-ride the Idle Air Control valve position during the coasting phase. This can be used to help reduce engine braking and may be useful if the engine has difficulty returning to idle. + +The coasting phase is determined by first checking if the TPS (or throttle pedal position if using ETB) is less than the _TPS Threshold_. If so, FOME next checks if the current RPM is greater than the maximum idle RPM (`Idle Target RPM + RPM Upper limit`) and the engine is no longer in the _cranking IAC taper duration_. If all of these conditions are true, the engine phase is coasting and the _Coasting Idle Table_ is used.
