racer Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 i guess i should have said exhaust. i meant that when it springs a leak the mig will fixer right up. Quote
01bansheeke Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 whats wrong with welding near a gas tank? Quote
LegendSS28 Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 i think it has something to dowith the idea of fire and gas right next to eachother Quote
racer Posted October 18, 2004 Report Posted October 18, 2004 fuel + spark = boom glad someone understood welding principals. Quote
fixitrod Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 Just keep the ground close to where you are welding and you should be fine. Not a bad idea to unhook the cdi to make sure. I've seen a computer on a car go bad by not unhooking the neg on the bat. Quote
