Flow Rate (Argoshield Light, welding mini)

[myredmini]

Hi, i got my argoshield light size X cansiter from my local boc supplier yesterday and i have wired it all up and ready to go. I am restoring a mini so i am using 18gauge steel and some a bit thinner (the actual made up panels are thinner) what flow rate should i have on the gas and should i be still using the minimum amps on the welder ? welder is a clarke 90en

Thanks
Dan

230bar x 10l =2300/10 liters flow rate=230 minutes of welding(aproxx 4 hrs)
