    Tight lid on 22.5" WSM

    I just emailed the support at support@weberstephen.com and they got back to me in a day or so. It was very painless. What is your date code (two letters stamped in the lid vent)?

    Tight lid on 22.5" WSM

    Yes, the center section box included the large metal tube and a bag of hardware containing the four brackets, nuts, screws, and washers. It didn't include water pan, grates, or a door.

    Tight lid on 22.5" WSM

    Problem solved! The new parts from Weber came and did the trick. Trying various combinations of old and new parts, I have determined that the old center section was too small and/or had a turned inward upper lip.

    Tight lid on 22.5" WSM

    Tight lid on 22.5" WSM

    So I just got my first WSM last week. I used it last weekend for the first time and I was wondering if my lid was unusually snug? I know about the gunk that can build up and make the lid stick once the WSM cools down, but this isn't it. The lid was sticking when dry and unused and also when...
