I meant what part of Texas. One of the best Lincoln Techs out there is here in Odessa if youre anywhere near here. Chris' welder repair. (432)-552-8150. He might be able to give you an idea over the phone of whats goin on or what you need to do. He can probably tell you where to take it near where you are at. Hes the best in the buisness around here. Being broke down is extremely costly. Ive found that its better to just bite the bullet and take it in if all other efforts have failed. Hope you have some luck!
