Re: Help with parts for Pro Mig 140 welder

Thanks but it turns out the problem was multifold: Gas regulator got turned down somehow, probably while being moved. The gas would flow, but then leaked at the power block/mig gun cable connection. After fooling with it several times, I noticed the gun cable cover had slipped down towards where it ...
