My O/A torch has a steady pop...pop...pop with the preheat flame and from what I have read here and at WW the cutting tip is not seated properly and is leaking oxy. I have cleaned everything including 2 different tips and still pops.
My torch is 15 yrs old and used very little. It is a Gentec 142T handle & 142C cutting head (I think it's Victor type)
Is this torch worth rebuilding or should I buy a new torch?
Any suggestions on a reasonably priced new torch for a guy that only uses one a couple of times a year.. I will mostly be cutting 1/2" and under steel.
Also If i need to buy one I would want it to work with propane as I want to switch when my Acet. Is gone.
Thanks
