    Any Bargain Covers?

    I bought a KK cover for my Genesis E310 and it fit it perfectly. I was half expecting to be loose and ill-fitting, but that wasn't the case. The two Velcro straps on both sides strap it down under the two side tables very nicely, leaving about 6" of exposed space between the ground bottom of...

    Picked up a Genesis 2

    It's there. You an see it in the second close-up image. Looks like he took it off in the first pic.

    Genesis 310 Conversion Issue

    Yeah. That's actually one of the things I don't like about the 2014 redesign of the grills a bit. I love that they moved the controls of the side to the front as it gives you an entire new prep area, but I don't like that the burners are now vertical instead of horizontal. On my old Spirit I...

    Genesis 310 Conversion Issue

    Thank you both, Larry and Bruce. That's pretty much what I'm seeing before and after my new manifold instillation. I think I was too focused on Webers official temperatures on their website being 250 and 550 with all burners on. Though they do somewhat confuse the issue by stating all burners...

    Genesis 310 Conversion Issue

    I first purchased three predrilled oriffices for my grill. When that didn't seem to work, I purchased an entire new maniforld for an LP version of my grill. Followed the instructions to install. It wasn't difficult. Now I'm trying to diagnose what's wrong. Could the regulator be at issue here...

    Genesis 310 Conversion Issue

    Hello everyone. A few years ago we purchased a clearanced Genesis 310 (this was the series before the current one, 2012-2016?). We got it home and were excited to grill but realized it was a natural gas unit instead of propane. I looked around to see what could be done and found a conversion...

    New decade old Summit vs. New Genesis/Genesis II

    Wow, amazing restoration job! I'll be sure to double and triple think before ditching an older grill before trying to restore it. Also seems like a fun project to buy something old like this and make it seem nearly new.

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    Thanks! I hope so as well. We had a Weber Spirit a few years ago and absolutely loved it! But sadly, it was crushed by a tree during a windstorm. We went without grilling last year as we didn't have the cash for a replacement and I didn't want to cheap out on bargain grill. I'm hoping...

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    From what I've seen for my grill, it looks like just the external orifice needs to be changed. However, should that fail, I'll be out $18 for the set. At which point, I'll just buy the LP manifold.

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    The orifice I purchased were for a direct swap. The newer Weber Genesis models use the same manifold assembly with the orifice being the difference. I'll be sure to first run a test on the flames without adjusting the shutters, but from what I've seen, some adjustment may be needed. Either...

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    That's pretty cool. Though I can still see it shifting within the compartment side-to-side. However, I can probably just bolt this to the bottom to keep stationary. I'll have to measure it out to make sure I have the clearance. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    Yes, NP. Oops. And yeah, I've read up on the changes needed for a correct conversion. I've ordered the proper orifice to change out for LP usage as well as the correct regulator. And I've looked at few documents/videos on properly adjusting the burners for airflow for LP. My main question was...

    Genesis e-310 NP to LP & Scale Question

    Hello, We recently scored a new Genesis e-310 (last year's model) from Home Depot for $340 as it was on clearance there and there was some damage to a couple of the nobs (Weber is already sending me replacement knobs and manifold assembly). We were all excited to get grilling, bought food and...
