Thanks for your thoughts guys, haven't had a chance to play with it again( been a busy crappy week).
I did however pop into Total Tools where i bought it, they printed off a lot of info, from Uni-mig themselves on the trouble shooting side of things. Hoping to have a play with it 2moz , just super keen to finish the car off. So close to rust free, is not funny, I've doubled checked the wire feed roller, definitely on the .6 side. got a .6 tip in hand piece. The bloke at Total Tools said about power supply, but why would i get great penetration using .9 ????? I've got no power in the shed as yet, feed from a ext cord from house. Got the line under ground but just waiting for sparky to connect both ends. Maybe the prob, but again why so such a good weld on .9. No idea, should've kept with my old Sip welder, i had that for 10 years with no probs. See how i go tomorrow, if not the Boiler maker from work is coming over to have a play. Thanks again,will keep you posted  ;D 

 Hey fchoon, i did double check everything , when as far as got the instructions out  :o . I was having trouble with the wire feed with the .6 wire. So i put the .9 wire in and worked fine with a great weld ( great penetration and very consistent). Anyway bought a 5kg spool of .6 wire and it feed fine (but no penetration) Gas is from supagas - supa Argon52 . Was running cig gas argoshield  light on my last welder but supagas has cheaper bottle hire per year and told supagas it was for a mig when hiring bottle. Any thoughts ??? Will Ring Total Tools 2moz see what they think..

G'day all,
            hoping someone here can please help me ,i just bought a Uni-Mig inverter 190. Was told it was the best buy for working on cars, and for almost $1000 worth of welder, not that happy with it at the minute.
Running .6 wire, the trouble being, there is no penetration at all. Played with the voltage and wire feed still not playing the game  ??? Any ideas , really cant be that hard. Never had trouble setting up a mig before. any ideas would be appreciated thanks Mat

Mate , sent you a PM if your still looking for a shell. Mat

I'm keen  Thanks Mat..

PM sent.
Thanks Mat.....

I bought it, but only just by the look of it. I'll do the right thing by her. I've got to sell some of my other projects but- well, that what i told the wife...anyway. ;D

Can't find the accessory of the month thread . Is that part of the members log in section? I gather, there s no way so saying how many vans got conversion then. Do you think -  that it lowers the value, seen that its not a factory option or makes it more a collectable?   :-\

Was that a factory option ( like the three door) or an after market mod? I take it, it didn't sell in march then. Is it listed for the same price and has anyone flesh?   

Hi, where abouts in Melbourne and can you please email some photos 2 ----- bickertonfamily@yahoo.com.au
Thanks ;D

I was the highest bidder for that roof rack @ $0.35. He ended up not wanting anything for it, so a very cheap wagon roof rack.VERY NICE ;D
