Hi folks,
I have an ancient BOC saffire (small size) kit, when I weld I can get a loud pop then the flame cuts out.
This can happen at anytime and will happen everytime, sometimes I can weld for a minute before it happens sometimes it is every 20 seconds.
the bangs and flame outs and then spraying of molten metal is just too much.
I work only on car bodywork, the 1mm panels and not chassis stuff.
I got new hoses and regulators.
Is this welding torch knackered? I only have one small nozzle with it.
I have been using this kit for decades, I think it used to be fine before but I try only to use it for heating now.
Any advice would be very much appreciated, I used to enjoy gas welding.
Cheers
