Slow Gas Leak from Torch

[Tatey]

I recently bought a Clarke 151EN MIG welder, i got my hands on some co2 to use with it, but there seems to be a slow gas leak coming from the torch.

Is there any way of solving this or do i need to replace the gas valve in the torch? If i need to replace the gas valve, how much will this cost?

Cheers

Try some WD40 on the plunger on the valve. Work it in by operating the valve a few times without the gas connected.

I've given that a go but it doesnt seem to have sorted it, ill leave it to soak in for a little while tho.
