I think it’s a slate gray like this one. Not mica

Hi Mark, You should be able to find a free or cheap grill in your area with useable end caps or a whole lid that you can swap onto your grill. Please include a picture of your grill or a picture of your lid so it can be assessed for replacement/repair candidates

Thanks Steve. The 8006 control panel that came with the grill has a worn off serial number that starts with EZ. The grill was assembled backwards when it came to me so it could be a mishmash of parts

Thanks for the replies. I checked another 13 bar box frame and that one also has notches for the end rack. I think it came to me with that part. I keep the parts in the firebox on the one-off grills so they don’t get lost. I don’t know the provenance of the grill and the serial number is not...

Greetings, I got this Skyline more than a year ago in a trade. It was assembled backwards with the big wheels on the left. Otherwise in good shape with all the parts from what I can tell. I am in New England. Sears looks like they sold Skylines nationwide. I reassembled and freshened up...

Dull aluminum cast. Not machined or polished

Hi Wes, Assuming you are in the USA there are plenty of options on Amazon in the $20 to $30 range.

The Silver A’s are probably the best built Weber gas grills and the easiest to maintain. The only drawback is size which limits the market for resale. I think it’s more perception than reality. They usually take me about 6 weeks to sell. Price isn’t a factor. The buyers want a Silver A and...

It’s a functional lid but I would grade it a “C”. That chip can be mitigated but not fixed. The chip is in a very visible spot.

I pulled off the back panel and snaked the line to the outside without any trouble. I put a universal tank scale from a Spirit II on that has tank gauge stickers on both sides

If it tests ok and I don’t see showstoppers I will at least pull off the front panel and the manifold. At that point I should be able to snake the stainless line through to the outside.

@DanHoo Thank you. I don’t see any issues with interference or aesthetics. Better to have the tank on the outside.

@DanHoo Hi DanHoo I am thinking out boarding a propane tank on a grill like yours. How did you route the propane hose assembly? I don’t see a factory hose access hole on this grill in the cabinet panels. Thank you

The slats are fastened to the z-bars with screws. The screws are “hidden” on the underside of the assembly

Weighing the tank is the most accurate as suggested by Larry. You would be better off putting the money in a second tank. Also, don’t start a cook if it’s low. Put the second full tank on. The Weber tank scale gives you an estimate. You can pick up the tank once you get a feel for it and get...

I offer low prices cause my costs are low. I enjoy completely cleaning porcelain enamel lids back to the new state which probably doesn’t make sense but I find that satisfying. Porcelain enamel control panels too. Don’t really get all that excited about plastic or wood. I appreciate some of...

I am shooting for a functional grill that’s clean to the touch. Silver B’s with faded black lids work for my customers. I don’t grind or sand blast fireboxes and flavor bars to clear metal, I just want to remove the last guy’s residue and “seasoning”. I paint the exterior of the firebox a...

Easy Off states not for aluminum. I read the directions after damaging aluminum. I was killing the emblems both the coated newer ones and older painted ones It’s also not good on painted surfaces regardless of the substrate Porcelain enamel and clear stainless - no paint or silkscreen - are...

I stopped thinking about electric cars after I spoke to my insurance agent. I was quoted $8500 per year for a Tesla sedan for full insurance not the minimum requirement in Massachusetts

I had a Prius about 12 years ago and could consistently get 50 miles a gallon without annoying other drivers too much. What was discussed was changing a per mile fee that you would be liable for once you went to renew a license or registration. That didn’t fly. What we see now in Massachusetts...
