Stop in for a cup of coffee

The 220 is a Lincoln 180 PRO, even on the lowest set, with the gas pressure turned down to about 8 psi, it blows thru even on tack welds. Even with .024 wire, the thinnest the machine can handle. It’s useable but figured for 100 bucks, I’ll try this one and see if that helps. If not, oh well. I’ll put it in the tool trailer I’m building for field repairs.
Gas, turned up. To prevent porosity in the welds.
Ampereage on lowest level and wire speed turned up. Rusty body metal? Forget it. Tack tack tack. Fill holes. Use a steel tig rod as extra filler or a coat hanger . My lincoln 180 was fine for body metal. Im using an esab215 mp now. I prefer to weld with .030 too.
