Get your self a bottle of 75/25 mix for your welder if possible.
Pick up some 0.23 wire. Turn the heat and the wire speed down.

If your welder has a hook up for gas, then I can't stress enough how much cleaner the welds are and that "Blowing Through" the metal is kida hard to do with gas.

So....bottle of 75/25. Thats 75% Argon and 25% co2. Any welding shop will know what you are talking about when you ask for 75/25.
0.23 wire, and your all set.

Post some pics when ya can.

Hope this helps
