them aluminum taps are a bitch too. I repaired a few of mine and i have the correct solder and flux and still hard to get to stick. All i can say is VERY VERY CLEAN taps will do the trick.
hey linc- you notice that the zinc flux smells kind of like rabbit piss?


I fly, I drive, but most of all I crash.

Never drank rabbit piss myself... but the zinc flux does smell bad.

What does rabbit piss go well with? Does it pair well with red meat or fish? I usually prefer wine with my meals, but that is just my preference...

There's an easy solution for that - don't breathe when you're using it . That smoke cloud that comes the flux, on the other hand, is something else.

Its often used to attract coyotes...I once had a welding professor who had a full size rabbit costume that he dressed up in to go coyote hunting. He'd soak it in rabbit piss, wihich you can actually purchase. Trappers and whatnot buy all sorts of stuff like that for disguising scents.
