Thanks, actually just tried cooking with it since the grill was finished with rehab, and it went great. At night I could see a perfect flame. Thanks for reply.

Update May 12th, 2016 - She is DONE! :-) She is DONE! A lot of work but well worth the effort. Got a postcard from my local ACE Hardware store today and a new 3 Burner Stainless Steel Weber Genesis S-310 for a whopping $849! I'm happy with the $100+ I spent to get this old gal looking and...

Hey All, I just replaced the burners on my Genesis II I'm rehabbing. I still have the old manifold and regulator. When I turn it on full, I get a basically see through flame with light blue about 3/8" to 1/2". Its nearly impossible to see. I don't have the flav bars or grates in it yet. Temp...

Update May 4th, 2016 Nearly there. Finished the wood, though need to drop in bottom shelves. Finished the lid up to where I took off the emblem to refinish per advice found on the forum to paint then sand down the name-logo. Here are the latest pics. BTW, when I called Weber they told me this...

Yes sir you are correct. My mistake was I thought this grill had coasters on the other end, but it didn't. I called Weber and going by the serial they determined it is actually a Genesis II from the mid to late 1980's. Nearly completed, have to post new pics soon! Thanks for the reply. - Ed

Wow, just spoke to Weber people, unreal customer service. I needed that switch and the piece that holds it, some various small pieces like end plugs etc and the left hand slide table hardware. They charged me for the slide table and the switch and threw in the rest various small pieces. Everyone...

Couldn't agree more, why didn't they call it Ignitor Switch? Oh well, yeah the switch holder is def melted, probably a bad angle and the two plastic plugs on the end were all melted too. I have brand new ignitor and burners, soon ordering a new switch, and all the other little bits n pieces...

I agree, just going by what Weber calls those parts (see below). I've added pics to show exactly what I was talking about the plastic plugs on end. The plug in the pic is the only survivor of the three. Since I cleaned the control panel better, I was able to make out the Model number as 430000...

Moving along, got the cook box scraped out, wow is that tough sledding. Had 1 bolt frozen in where the manifold attaches to cook box. Lucky for me I was able to get most of it out, then CAREFULLLY drilled out the rest. Painted it three coats of flat black, also did the lid endcaps. Cleaned up...

Hello All, I'm working the restoration of my Gen 2000. Cleaning the control panel I noticed that the grey rocker switch holder is melted one one end on the underside of the control panel. My model also has 3 black plastic plugs that go on right hand side of control panel to hold it to frame. The...

These pics are of the frame. One bottom frame member was fairly rotted at both ends. Luckily I have a friend who can weld, he cut off one bad end and inserted into scrap piece and welded new pieces on. Painting of frame is currently underway. Naked Frame Fell out of one leg :-)...

After lurking for a while, (and learning tons) I picked up a Genesis 2 off of CL for $40. I love any thread with pics so I'm going heavy on pics hoping others like that too. Normal grime from use and some rust I didn't initially see. Here are the "before" pics. The lid on this grill was totally...

Enrico, thank you! Happy to be here.

Thank you. I will post pics, is there any limit on the forum to what is deemed overkill? For my own preferences in reading the forum I devoured threads with pics and the more the merrier. That in mind I took tons to document my start. Thx

Greeting from Silver Spring, MD … a mere 8 miles from The White House. I'm not sure I'm in the right place as most people in the intros seem to have smokers? I'm attempting my first Weber gas grill reno. I've been reading the forum for a couple of weeks now. I wanted a replacement for my...
