Hello,
Just purchased a 33 ft 5er that will weight around 12000 when loaded. I have the Hot Juice, and just wondering if I should use level 1 or 2. I did some searching, and alot people with the regular juice use level 2...is it the same on the hot?

Thanks for the help.

Do you have the Attitude monitor also? Or gauges at all? If you have the Attitude you can set your defueling EGT limits, or watch the EGT's and drive accordingly.

Yes, I have gauges..but not the attitude. Mine is the pre-attitude Hot Juice.

I say run it and see where your at..level 1 is the safest, but I would imagine you could get away with level 2 if you watch your gauges.

Figure the Hot Juice as having levels 2,3,4, and 5 on it in positions 1,2,3, and 4.

I'd say position 1, maybe 2 and keep your transmission happy.

Thanks. I guess I will put level 2 on normal for everyday driving, then 1 on Tow Haul mode....of course, now I have to get rid of level 4 on TH :-(

My trailer is not that heavy. It grosses 11,700 lbs, but it is typically loaded to around 10,500. I don
