On a previous thread that might not be revisited, Cruizer made this statement:
(Cruizer)
Probably liner time, wire is getting jammed in the liner, likely full of crap from the wire. Best to stick an earplug in before the drive to clean the wire. DO NOT USE a felt cleaner as it plugs the liner up. (end quote)
I'd not heard this before, and am trying to recall seeing this (I've been mostly stick welding, haven't needed to change liners in a long time). Cruizer, does this apply to all of the felt wipers (some are used dry, others with a special lube)??
