The new versions of the Hondas and Toyotas gas only are less efficient than the 1980’s. The safety requirements added 100’s of pounds. Safer and probably more reliable. Added complexity makes them more difficult to repair

You don’t need to remove the ignition rocker switch to remove the panel

Hi Jeff, I got a silver b open that I am working on now 1 pull off knobs 2 remove 2 screws philip’s head 3 lift up panel

Hi Rick, I did not find one in my side burner parts. I will keep an eye out if one pops up

Rip up the wood and throw it out. Go composite. There are brands very similar to Trex at less cost per board foot that are available at a local lumberyard that serves pros if you still have one in your area Only maintenance is pressure washing boards that don’t get sun.

Thanks Steve. I will look through my pile of sideburners

Hi Rick, I might have one. Can you send a picture please.

Short wheel base model

1st generation Summit It needs lots of work and it’s probably Natural Gas. My unsentimental top price is $20. Free is better If you really want love that grill and are willing to put in the work $75.00 is not unreasonable. Bear in mind parts are hard to come by.

Joe, that’s nice restoration work on the Napoleon. I was wondering if you brought new which would have surprised me since you have posted many good looking grill rebuilds over the years. The shrouded hood is a nice feature that the Genesis doesn’t have

They are cool looking that’s why. I don’t really know… They were some of the nicest stainless grids I have seen. Well built, flat and keep the stainless shine through heat cycles.

I salvaged a couple of sets of the wavy grids from Napoleon grills. They were heavy non magnetic stainless probably 9mm. I didn’t have any issues cleaning them. No different from Weber Summit 9mm. I cleaned them on a work table not on the Napoleon for the record I cut them down for a Genesis...

Those look like Weber GBS which was not original to that grill. The version was discontinued I believe. You can still buy the accessories that go in the middle like a pizza stone. I had an older version. The 12” center insert was too small for anything that would feed more than 2 people

I doubt you will get many people who cooked on both and did a comparison. The S470 is not that common of a grill. The Genesis of that era are the same size as an S470.

With the cast iron I have to be careful with lamb chops followed by boneless chicken breasts. If I don’t brush off the cast iron before the chicken breasts I get some black lines that will now be my meal. Beef then chicken is ok. For the grills I sell I default to used stainless. Whenever I...

Thanks. I don’t think my family are typical grillers We are cast iron and grill about 10 times per week. I think 5 of the times are bone in pork chops that keep the cast iron seasoned but who’s counting

2 factors to consider is how much will you use the grill and spacing between the rods. If you cook thin stuff like sliced vegetables, chicken cutlets, thin hamburgers, etc watch out for the spacing. You might get a good price on stainless rod cooking grids and have your food fall into the...

I don’t see much of a difference on a side burner setup for Natural Gas running grill regulated propane with no modifications. I have 2 in operation. Both have continuous valves not step valves. The Weber side burners are relatively low output and run in the open. If anything they are...

Hi Ant, The dimensions will fit in the frame and the side burner has its own ignition so you should be ok there. The gas fitting may be different so you might have some work to do to get it plumbed. Hopefully your manifold on the 2000 has a plug and is already tapped.

My guess is you would probably get them for free if you showed up. It looks like the area needs to be cleared
