    3000 not getting hot enough

    I discarded the old burners as they were rusted out. These are Weber replacements though.

    Yes, open tank, turn on burner closest to me, ignite, turn on #2 then 3. Same as I have done a thousand times over.

    3000 not getting hot enough

    Could disconnecting my side burner have anything to do with it? That doesn’t seem plausible, but it is the only other thing that changed.

    Brand new tank. The tank I traded in had a bit left in it, but I thought the same thing.

    Yes, most of the front is open. It probably has more ventilation than the base because it has no door.

    3000 not getting hot enough

    I put new burner tubes and a stainless grate in my 3000. I removed the grill from the frame and put it in a built in grilling station. Everything looks right, but it is not getting hot. Used to get up to damn near 550, now it’s a stretch to get to 350-400. I replaced the regulator thinking that...

    Burner control valve acre head stripped

    I think I stole her.....

    Well I finally got this done. I replaced the 2 natural gas orifices with 2 LP orifices, added the new regulator hose assembly, and reassembled the grill. The valves did not need to be replaced. I tested the temperature and here are the numbers. Low setting 300* Medium setting 490* High...

    Thank you for that suggestion! I may throw up the hose and orifices on the sell/swap. I ordered parts from Majestic Grill parts - grill-repair.com out of FL. Awesome to deal with, prices were right, and free shipping. I need to wire brush the cook box, and will clean up the warmer basket,plate...

    I think I stole her.....

    LMichaels I have scoured the web looking for control valves for the Genesis Silver A, and have only been able to find 1 type (there are 2 options a bolt through, and a screw in- mine is a bolt through) [/url]weber-bolt-through-valve by Dan McCloskey, on Flickr[/IMG] Can you give me any...
