[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 289155, member: 4674"] See if you can find a victor torch owners manual. It has tables in it for the tips. Most people run to much pressure when using act. and oxy. I think for instance when using a number 3 cutting tip you need the pressure the same as the tip size plus what every it takes to open the regulator on the oxygen. Also the pressure on the act. needs to be adjusted the same. Most of the time the pressure will be 10 lbs on each one. Light the torch and increase the act. volume until the flame leaves the tip of the cutting tip then back up until there is no gap between the tip and flame. Now turn on the oxygen until the flame burns blue and clean. Now open the lever to cut and adjust the oxygen until it is blue. Preheat across the cut to take any chill off of the metal move back and start your cut. I know some of you guys that use a torch will not agree with me, but try it it may work. Might try the propane and oxygen the same way it might just work. [/QUOTE]
