I got this post off the welding forum:
Flux core (at least the type you probably have) is meant to be run with no shielding gas...period. Also, you need to switch the polarity to DCEN or you will end up with swiss cheese welds. Lastly, don't push self-shielding flux cored wire. It is a bad habit and the welds will not be as strong as if the wire is pulled (dragged).
