    Skyline Blackout Edition is FINALLY DONE

    Chicago is the capital for grills. For some dumb reason they were marketed and sold in New England. There isn’t a strong connection to Chicago since the sports teams don’t seem to be rivals. They are about as common as the red head genesis 13 bar grills around here. I believe Sears Roebuck sold...

    I will just leave this here

    It’s a marketing strategy. “It’s expensive so it must be good”. Easier for a seller to negotiate down or use fud - fear uncertainty and doubt - to cast dispersions on competitor’s grills to justify a price. Plus you can go the 50% off route and offer deals. There is also a cost factor that...

    Spirit Grease Tray OK in Dishwasher?

    I would not put it in the dishwasher without thoroughly cleaning it first. I scrape, then easyoff, then scrub the porcelain enamel trays with good results

    Curb Alert !!!

    If that’s your greatest sin you are better than most… Yes I would say it’s wrong assuming the offer is not explicitly “help yourself to whatever parts you want” or “It gets picked up by my the trash man on Tuesday” They usually want it gone and they don’t want to hear about it again. Part of...

    Curb Alert !!!

    Off to parts it goes. I have a faded Skyline that could use some parts. Thanks for the background. I didn’t realize it was that old. One last picture… the drip pan holder looks prehistoric

    Curb Alert !!!

    Thanks for the date info. I didn’t realize the grill was that old. No readable label or documentation. I am going to disassemble the grill and sort out the parts to see if anything can be reused. To restore this grill would be a lot of labor and about $300 to $500 for the correct parts for a...

    Igniter for Silver B

    I have had good luck with this brand. It’s probably no different than the Weber or different from the other aftermarket choices https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076GYMZ68?tag=tvwb-20

    Curb Alert !!!

    It does have a basket on the right hand side. The legs that have pads not casters have leg rot. The ring is noticeable in the glare of light. I have seen all sorts of items left on lids that have left an outline. This is not bad. What’s the build date range on a Genesis 1?

    Curb Alert !!!

    I probably should be doing my chores… this was less than a mile from me and on the curb and free which is about the maximum effort I will put in for a grill. I don’t subscribe to Facebook but I could see where the grill was from the post. The lid was in good shape and cleaned up to a grade A-...

    Whoops! Anyone else ever do this?

    We have multiple grill users, grills and side burners. If the tank is turned off no leaks. So turn off the tank when finished is one of our rules. I have found the grill running unattended. Side burner valves open leaking gas. Grill valves open leaking gas. The common failure mode was the tank...

    Whoops! Anyone else ever do this?

    You could get a timer. Looks kind of pricey but it might make sense for Natural Gas https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NBFJR55?tag=tvwb-20

    they are not too hard to replace. Buy a new ignition set Just take pictures of the old ones before you replace them. The wires have color coded ends

    What age range is this Summit from

    That is probably the only 4 burner summit I would consider. The base model 4 burner without the rotisserie burner offers nothing that you can’t get with a Genesis.

    What age range is this Summit from

    I have had good luck with the Summits like that sticking to my rule of maximum price $20.00 If they are in ok shape and can be restored I sell them “As is” to a Summit fan. If they are rough I can pull out parts and send the carcass to the scrapyard.
