hi new to the forum and I hope you guys can help picked up a really nice 320a/bp from a trade school auction with remote pedal for next to nothing but here's where it goes bad when I try to strike an arc you have to scratch start and I can get it to arc but it refuses to melt metal the arc sounds like a fuzzy buzz and does little more than etch the surface of aluminum on high setting here's what I know....
I switched the voltage to 230v
I put a 25ft tig torch on it too long????
gapped the points to .008
adjusting the frequency knob changes the tone of the spark between the points
the mica capacitors appear to be leaking goo down the front panel
the pedal turns the current on but seems to have no a
