but as soon as the nozzle oxidizes, the wire feed is very troublesome.
I believe it's the other way round, it's the wire that oxidises (rusts) and the rust then clogs the nozzles. Some wire is copper coated to prevent rust forming. I've had the same roll in my welder for over 6 years without issues.
