    Old propane tanks with quick connect

    Hi Mark, You should be able to swap that male connector onto a modern regulator hose assembly if you have one. There is a brass fitting inside the black Acme nut on a modern regulator hose assembly that connects to the propane tank. You can remove that brass fitting if it is a hex nut with an...

    It will fit on a Silver B. You are unlikely to be satisfied however. The end caps are not interchangeable with a Silver B curvy lid

    Weber Summit 650 refurb

    Do you think you could modify the part with a metal tube? Or maybe you need to go to Florida USA to pick up the part?

    Porcelain grates

    Welcome to the forum, I have had good overall warranty experience with Weber. The Weber customer service team is empowered to address customer satisfaction. So I would make sure your grill is registered. Once registered, call Weber support and state your case. If you need or could use...

    Weber Summit 650 refurb

    That’s a Jetfire type ignition. The tips are some type of iron and tend to rot after many heat-cool cycles weakens them. I can’t imagine there is a great supply of used Summits in your area to harvest parts from. Every burner tube needs its own ignition in that design. You might want to...

    Curb Alert !!!

    That was better than nothing. The original side tables were plastic and burnt with a hot pot pretty bad.

    2000 Redhead Rehab

    You can drill through the firebox and mount aluminum flatbar for rails using nuts and bolts if you can’t use the original mounting points. Front panel provides some lateral support for the legs. The legs can get wobbly on those grills. A brace or gussets if you don’t have access to a welder...

    2000 Redhead Rehab

    You probably need a parts grill or 2 if you want to do a full restoration. You might have some in your area. You can repair that one but it will need some surgery The one thing to keep in mind how long do you want it to last? A year or 2 no problem. 5 or more years you will need to stockpile...

    Curb Alert !!!

    Hi Hank, I know the x and y axis is the same but I never noticed that the z-axis height was different. Here are 2 pictures of grills I had from the same time period - late 90’s. I think might be an illusion since the firebox on the Genesis is taller than the Spirit. Or maybe the geometry is...

    They are too thin for slats. We have a few sets that my wife uses for doormats. They use a plastic backing that allows them flex a little and not get crushed provided they are on a solid surface.

    Curb Alert !!!

    That sounds like a Spirit 700 3 burner. It’s the same size lid and firebox as a Genesis B/C

    Curb Alert !!!

    Silver A’s are nice grills. They are smaller than B’s and C’s. Most parts are not interchangeable. Just knobs, wheels, tank scale, regulator hose assembly and fasteners are common. There is not a big market for Silver A’s.

    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...

    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...

    Date code on firebox. Control panel is 8101

    If you have a round tube manifold silver c it’s no later than 2003. And no earlier than 2001.

    Respectfully, What are you trying to answer? I would start with pictures of the entire grill

    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
