For a standard set of Victor 450 and 460 regulators, is there any guide available that converts psi gauge to volume flow? I'm having a little problem getting the gas/oxygen mixture just right on my gopher buster. I can get it to pop, sometimes BALOOEY!, and sometimes splut ....... The deep low tone detonations are supposed to be the best.
I have tried alternating, running in some propane, then some O2. That works. At times, though, when I have run about three minutes of mix down the hole, and it would seem I'd get a pop, I don't. Then, there are times when I get a nice pop, then secondary and even one more after I turn off the gas flow.
I'm having some pretty good luck with it so far, just looking for consistency and predictability. The proprietary model says 98% oxygen and
2% propane, but I can't figure out what the numbers would be in PSI, and that seems like a lot of oxygen when I have gotten it to fire with a lot less.
I need to carry a pistol with rat shot. The other day, I had one shoving dirt out an opening while I was rigging another. Could have smacked him with a stick he was so close. I get no respect, I tell ya.
