I picked up a used Miller Sidekick mig welder and have been playing with it and have found that there is a delay from when I let up on the trigger and when the wire feed and power to the wire stops. Also, it doesn't seem like I can turn the wire speed down far enough, the speed does change with the speed control, but I can weld best with it turned down all the way.

Have you checked the tension on the wire roll feeder? Inside the unit where the spool is, the wire feeds off of the spool, through the feed roller, this roller has a tensioner spring on it that keeps the wire flowing steady, and also check the spring tension the keeps the spool from turning freely, keep this loose as can be, and just enoughthat it doesn't unwind on it's own.
There are so many things that it can be, but this is a start.
Good Luck.
