i have a hobart mega arc 300G, 1984, ford gas engine 2300, 4 cyl.
When I am welding with a 1/8 " rod, the machine will sometimes speed up and the heat will change like I am using a 1/4" rod. the only way i can get it to stop is to turn off the machine and let it cool down awhile. then when i start it back up sometimes its alright but sometimes its not. i have had the "dios" checked on it and it checked out ok , as did a load test and generator test. i have had new slip ring brushes put in an seated,and a 1" x 1" rectifier box. i have also replaced the timing belt and put a new govenor on it. can you give me any advice? thanks, john moore
