welding advice

Mig welding, and weld is very porous.. as if not getting sheilding gas. Getting gas to nozzle. Its tsc 75/25 like I always get. Gauges have long since quit working but I've got a good handle on my flow settings and don't think I'm too hi or low.

So I take regulator off and crack tank a few times. Looks like light fog/ moistur comin out when I crack it. But I've never had to crack one so maybe this look is normal? It is a newer tank( last week). You see where I'm heading and pointin at, ...am I on right track or missin somthin here. Nozzle tip liner all good shape btw. I got vicadin and jack in me but I don't think that's the prob either. Just seems like a gas prob

Thoughts?
