[AT] A long shot--Wisconsin part

[Ed Stewart]

Hi, 7018 seems to do a good job also if you have a dc machine, I don't 
so I buy 7018ac they work ok on ac but still are hard to keep burning 
although they start a lot better than a straight 7018, my Dad used to 
buy Lincolin number 375 for cast iron they did a fine job wielding up 
the head of an F20 that cracked sorta zigzaged between the valve springs 
when we somehow forgot to drain the water and it froze. As soon as the 
wield was done there was a fat stick of carbon looking stuff you rubbed 
on the wield and it sucked in and filled any pores. The F20 ran for many 
years after the repair..
