I have a lincoln 110 wire feed welder with gas but it has the A B C D heat settings.I,m trying to patch some rust on floor boards but if I have it set on C I get good heat on the new metal but get burn threw on the old metal and if I go down a setting I just get a blob sitting on the metal with little penitration.So how can I compensate for this ,more or less wire speed ,hold gun back further ? I seem to do OK on thicker metal but having trouble with this 16 gauge
