Everlast 250 EXT TIG WELDER

[DVA]

So my supplied TIG torch does not allow any water/air flow thrugh the cooling lines. Any idea what to check for? I have checked out both connectors and put a 1/16" filler rod up the line to see if there is any plugs and see no problem. I have tried to blow air with no kinks or bends in the line and no luck.

I am assembling a water pump, just waiting for the pump. I am going to use a Flojet pump that has about 50 psi of head and rated at just above 1 gpm. I will run a bypass back to the tank to regulate the supply pressure to the torch between 40-50 psi.

I can blow through mine, It has small long tubes so there isn't much volume, but I can feel the air on my cheek from the other line when I blow on either one.

These small torches are not designed to handle much amperage without water.
