    Have you got your covid vaccine yet?

    I lucked out and got an appointment for yesterday. First dose on board (Moderna) with a return date of 2/17. No symptoms from the shot at all. Arm is a little sore today, but no more than usual for any other IM shot. Wife not yet eligible for first dose based on age requirements.

    2008 Weber Genesis Sidewinder Restoration

    Rafael: You've got a good grill there which will serve you well for years. Only big thing to keep ahead of is rust in the bottom panel and the side frames where it meets that panel. Several members have tips on how to deal with that. Rust was the only real weakness for this series from 2007...

    The Legend has passed, RIP Mike Mills

    We frequented his LV locations on every trip to visit family while we still lived in RI. Some great memories there with birth announcements, birthdays, etc. I would even get some to go before taking the rental car back on the way to the airport. My wife and I even met him at another location...

    Genesis with minor lighting issues - could use some advice

    I totally agree with Bruce. Slow clicking could be from poor contact. First thing I would check are the contacts on the plastic button. There are two narrow strips on the outside of the plastic that make the contact with the spring to complete the circuit. If they are corroded some, it would...

    Keeping take-out barbecue warm ?

    We use a small Omaha Steak Styrofoam cooler (not the bigger ones) for take out. Works pretty well for the two of us. There is a Sicilian style (pan) pizza we like but the place is about 10 miles away. We pre-heat a cookie sheet in the oven at 350 before going to pick up the pizza. When we...

    New EX6 for Christmas, got one cook out of it!

    Corey: The cord definitely isn't the issue then. Hope the issue is easy to resolve with tech support.

    New EX6 for Christmas, got one cook out of it!

    I agree with Jon on the extension cords. Never 16 ga or 18 ga or longer than 25ft. !4ga is good and 12ga is even better. All 3 wire cords.

    For your Christmas Day viewing pleasure...

    Had some great Q from the Salt Lick guys at the Austin airport a decade ago. They had a spot here in Las Vegas that wasn't as good and as added insult, no Dr. Pepper! (only sold Pepsi products). No longer here.

    Merry Christmas to all

    Barb: Thanks to all you have done as an essential worker for your community. Thanks to both you and Rich to keep the TVWBB a vibrant entity. We hope you both have a Merry Christmas 2020 as it is to be. Hopefully, Christmas 2021 will allow us all to gather with our families safely.

    2008 Genesis E-310 Restoration

    Here's the 2007 assembly .pdf that shows the bracket in step 13. Manifold has no wings unlike 2008 forward and has a gas collector unlike the newer models with the igniter on the front burner itself.

    2008 Genesis E-310 Restoration

    Bruce: Nawh, not until somebody goes for "more power" drilling out the orifices for conversion! I've learned an awful lot from you, Larry, Jon, Rich and others in the past couple of years. I will stay with the 13 year old Genesis, not the new stuff probably for as long as I'm still kicking...

    2008 Genesis E-310 Restoration

    Hi Bruce: I don't think defective is the right word. If I recall from other posts the valve end of earlier model grills were supported by hangers. The 2007 with the cross bracket did have a little give to it when you pushed down on the valve knobs. Going to the wings that sit in slits in the...

    2008 Genesis E-310 Restoration

    Hi Bruce: The 2007 manifold just had two bolts to the firebox and a cross piece under the valves to support the manifold. Separate ignitor in a gas catcher. 2008-2010 manifolds had no cross piece, but had wings that slide into the frame crossmembers plus the two bolts to the firebox. Perhaps...

    2008 Genesis E-310 Restoration

    Chris: Welcome. If your 2008 is like the ones in the US any parts from 2008-2010 model years will fit yours. I have 2007 models which have different manifolds and igniter systems. All other 2007 parts will fit. If you search on the board for "sidewinders" and E-310 Genesis you will find...

    COVID 19 vaccine

    The CDC committee just prioritized the list again moving up seniors and people with high pre-existing conditions. We'll see how this plays out politically in the individual state plans.

    Death, taxes and...?

    Batteries not included. Of course you don't have the right size.

    COVID 19 vaccine

    Chuck: We have to pay the cost either way so their healthcare should not be superior to law abiding citizens. Most systems released many of the populations. Keep the rest of them all in cell confinement for the 10 days isolation and hold all incoming prisoners at local jails until the...

    COVID 19 vaccine

    Sign me up too! Only problem I see is the "customized" priorities each state designates. Absolutely no issue with most of the priorities, but here in Nevada, inmates get vaccine before over 65 with pre-existing conditions who are not in facilities. I guess those of us who have managed to stay...

    I'm shoppin for a garage door opener

    I've got a 24 year old Genie screwdrive that still runs well. Needs to be relubed every couple of years. Only issue we ever had was to burnish the contacts on the light relay which would stick in the on position. Our son has a Chamberlain on his two doors and they are noisy as hell. Just...

    Vacuum to clean SmokeFire

    I'm sure Rich will weigh in on this. I have a similar grill to him. I don't have the sideburner since I have a Weber Genesis for that. The ash dump was one of the selling points as was the pellet dump. No problems at all with the software but I haven't upgraded to Wifi control. I've got a...
