So you are shopping for a Precept 31UL and want to know what, if any, engine braking setting/switch is available for the V10 gas engine?
Caution! I am an old man... so some of this may be out of date...
No gas engine that I know of has a 'butterfly valve' for engine braking. Jake brakes are for diesels ONLY.
As far as I know, Ford tow/haul mode is what Ford uses for engine braking on both gas and diesel engine vehicles. It will downshift the transmission for engine braking when 'tow/haul' mode is engaged AND you press on the brake pedal.
For MANY years the tow/haul switch has been located at the end of the transmission shift lever. This is a Ford engine/transmission thing, not Jayco. You could ask the salesperson if there is a button at the end of the transmission shift lever. They might know the answer to that.
EDIT: Thank you, 1955farm.
