have a centry wire welder 10 years old not used in 6 month wire feeds ok but no buzz only burns up wire , have good ground any ideas? also tried low speed wire high speed wire low heat high heat recheck ground , good gas flow 15-20 ? 6 months ago it work perfect, something change over time with no use
tig or mig?
for mig a small problem hobby guys get is the wire rusting. rust can come off in the liner and cause it to drag.
i would check your wire speed with a tape measure and timer.

a friend of mine has an older century wire welder. He began having issues after it sat for a spell. Right where the whip connects to the machine he began having a helluva lot of problems. Check that area , might be corrosion or something else going on.
