Sears sells a few of theirs with their own color scheme, etc. One difference of note between the Century and other MIG's is that the Century uses a gun with a gas valve built into the trigger instead of using a solenoid in the welder like most others. The Century uses a Tweco gun so parts are easy to find.
They're both transformer machines with a switch to select which voltage tap you're using. There are aluminum kits available for both although the Century kit will probably be harder to find but you need to read prior threads from this group before you try and weld aluminum with such a small unit. All but the thinnest of aluminum sheetmetal takes quite a bit more power than either of these machines will put out. Go to google. It still probably won't be much good for aluminum but it is a more powerful welder.
The T version has voltage taps like the Century and cheaper Lincoln. Best Regards, Keith Marshall [email protected]. Erratic wire feed or bird nesting of wire is most commonly caused by liner issues. Average gun rebuild consists of: liner, diffuser, tip and nozzle.

Best Regards, Keith Marshall [email protected]. Average gun rebuild consists of: liner, diffuser, tip and nozzle. Symptoms suggesting it is time to rebuild gun and clean drive assembly : -- wire drags, feeds erratically or 'bird nests' inside machine -- wire burns back to tip -- you are having to increase the amount of tension being placed on wire as it feeds into the gun.
Cleaning your drive assembly consists of: -- cleaning the groove on your drive roll -- cleaning the wire inlet and outlet guides -- cleaning oil and debris from compartment area You will need to consult your owners manual on how to install your new liner. Most but not all liners are held in the gun at the rear by a set screw. Once loosened the liner can be removed from the REAR of the gun. The nozzle, diffuser and tip most be removed prior to installing the new liner.
