Thanks John,
I had to fight with the TIG machine because I'm not used to direct amp adjustment, with no footpedal it makes it a little tough to get good welds without burning through.
Incidentally, I talked to the guy selling me the motor and he said it was an honest mistake. Which is what I thought he would say. He offered to give me the cash back. So, what do I do? Get my cash back? give him the 4.8 back and lookd for another? I'm confused, I bet I could get 5.3 eventually(in my price range...CHEAP). It just sucks that I already have this one sitting in my garage. Dang it!
