yes and you as well as anyone knows if your moving along your not going to stop on a hill couse you reach the short time limit. keep it in #8 and not look at the amp gauge.

J I too have had this happen, dont know the
temp. though, its a method to keep you from operating in the short time ratings for over
the prescribed time (cant cheat) jackflash

Not your flame war on what is best. But i do have a question for the mechanical department here. On G.E. engines dash 8 and 9 have what is called a traction motor protection which cuts the power to the traction motor when the temp gets to a certain degrees. just what is that temp? i have had that happen once but never since. i know how to go to the screen that displays this info of operating system. and i have had the motors what i call pretty hot. just something i like to know.
