    A third less current? That's a little much if you ask me.

    Pulsing might help.

    If you will post some pictures, then we might be able to see what's going on.

    Give us your setup parameters to start with: ie. tungsten type, how far stick out is, how far off puddle you are, polarity, amps, gas type etc.

    1/16" 2% thoriated tungsten, 1/8" stickout, 1/16" - 1/8" off puddle, DCEN, 40 amps, #6 cup, 15 on the flowmeter, mison Argon shielding gas.

    I'd put the gap down to as close as you can get without out touching the puddle. 1/8" is too much. Flow is too high if you are using our regulators. Our regulators are in lpm, not cfh. Turn down to 7. Use a #5 or smaller cup.

    I'd also try 3/32 electrode at about 50 amps and see how that works. the 3/32 should handle that, and the arc may be a little more fat.
