I know exactly what you mean.it's hard sometimes to get everything working right at the same time. I find that when I'm having trouble with my long irons, it's caused by my tempo being off. In other words, I tend to rush my swing and/or try to swing too hard, resulting in either topping or chunking the shot. The other thing you might want to remember is to shift your weight as you swing. You didn't mention whether or not you're using hybrids, but if so, remember to shift your weight forward slightly as you swing. This will make for a smoother swing and better contact between the club and the ball.
There have been many popular jokes about the difficulty of hitting long irons. My favorite is Lee Trevino's quip about God, lightning and a 1-iron. He's right. Tough club to hit. In fact, the 1-iron had a very brief lifespan in my bag when I was a junior golfer. Whatever iron is the longest in your bag, the key is hitting the ball flush, because there is no substitute for solid contact. The way I set up to the ball often depends on the feel of the shot. For a stock long-iron shot, I position the ball just inside my left heel, much like I do with a fairway wood. If I need to hit a low shot, I'll position the ball farther back in my stance. Nothing against the utility clubs that have replaced the longer irons in most average players' bags, but there is no better feeling than a well-struck long iron that soars high and lands softly. Shallow out the arc of your swing To hit the long irons solid, it helps to have a shallow, more rounded arc on the backswing and to hit the ball at the bottom of the arc on the downswing. You want to attack the ball with the clubhead coming from inside the target line. A shallow arc also allows you to sweep the ball with your long irons as opposed to the steep swing you use with the shorter irons to hit down and through the ball. The player who beats down on the ball with a long iron will have a tough time getting it in the air. Jack Nicklaus, one of the game's best long-iron players, never seemed to take a divot. Most amateurs don't swing the club level through impact. They try to help the ball get airborne by lifting up through impact, and as a result they hit their long irons thin. Some amateurs swing too steeply on the backswing, bottom out the arc too soon on the downswing and hit it fat. Instead, think of swinging your arms around your body, and staying tall through impact.
6 5 4 irons are longer than your short irons. Short irons you should swing more upright but longer irons swing more around your body creating greater club head speed which allows your shaft to catch up with your swing.

The copper pipe uses silver solder and torch to seal. First you must take pump to reclaim the the freon from the system to relieve the pressure. If you try to solder it with pressurized line it will just blow the solder out.
