The reason for using oxy/acetylene and a small tip is for localized heating. Most propane torchs have a wide flame. If you are going to use a propane torch use as small and as fine point tip as you can get. Remember the tubes are very thin & heat up very fast & can be overheated easily. This in itself will cause more problems as excess heating drives the impurities out of the metal you are trying to solder. When this happens you have to let it cool & start the cleaning process all over again. Good Luck with your indeavor. P.S. use a #9 acid core solder & if you can get it laco flux.
