I'm new to this forum and looking for some help/ advice
I bought a boc auutolynx welder from fleabay was supposed to be in good order like a mug I took there word and never tested it
I got welder home put wire on and gas and powered it up
1st fault is gas solenoid (gas flowing constantly)not a big problem I will replace with new solenoid
2nd fault which I'm not sure about is the torch is live even before pressing switch on gun eg I can feed out 6inches of wire let go of trigger touch wire on to scrap piece of metal (earth cable connected )and get a spark burning the 6inch wire of back down to tip
I have converted it to a Euro torch but I'm still having the same problem
does anyone have any ideas/know what the problem could be any help/advice would be appreciated
