You need to check the polarity of your leads first. It very well may be set up for fluxcore.

Then you need to find out what wire your running. Also you need to know the diameter of your wire and double check that with the roller in the machine and make sure its setup to run that size of wire. Also check your tip size too and make sure its the correct tip for the wire your running.

^This^ Polarity check 1st correct wire for gas 2nd metal compatibility 3rd

Where in aurora are you located. I am using a 220 plug from my dryer with a probably 50ft extension cable. I cant get around that though or Ill have to upgrade my service at my house as I am maxed out. What wire is suggested. Ill just go buy wire since there isnt anything on my current spool that describes it. My wire and tips do match, im pretty sure about that.

I am actually at 73rd and Washington.
I bet you ahve the polarity reversed and are using flux core wire.
