    are the wheels spinning but not pushing wire? change the tip, ive found that people who dont know how to weld (no offense intended) screw up tips very quickly. to check, take the tip off and try to feed wire.

    I allways take the tip off to feed new wire. The wheel does not spin but it spins fine with .025 wire of a 2 lbs spool( came with it) I went and picked up a .023 11 lbs pound spool to see if that will work.

    **** man give me a little bit of credit

    i dont take the tip off when i put a new spool on... ive never seen one that the drive wheels wouldnt spin on. they always just spin but slip. sounds like a POS to me.

    you may actually have the drive rolls to tight, lossen the dirve wheels up untill they spin on the wire and don't feed it.

    See if that helps

    if its not bird nesting then i would say the drag is on the spool, not in the liner or gun. ive never seen one not able to make a sweet bird nest when it gets locked up in the gun.

    Thats what I have been thinking and thats what I told brazos supply. I have tried/checked everything on the spool and it doesnt seem to be hung up

    regardless, your drive wheels are too tight like creighton said, they should spin.
