Ok that fixed the feed rate but I found another problem which I manually fixed:
Here is a Gcode snip of the test file I am using

Mach 3 seems to skip lines 130, 180, and 230, which are G0 moves of A, The weird thing is that the A axis moves to the position called for in the following line for example when line 180 calls for A to move to 71.6312, it instead moves to the position called for in line 200 which is -288.3688, so that when it actually goes to that line it does the arc but not the A axis movement.
What I did was to add a G1 on lines 130, 180, 230, etc... and now the A axis moves to where it is supposed to move.
Any ideas on why G0 moves of A axis are being skipped?
