My first New Platinum series I was missing that par, really helps keep burners in place.

The last time I cleaned valves, I used Gas valve grease which I got at Home Depot. That is the same stuff I used back in the 70s when I worked at a propane store.

Well now I know the grill comes from Weber assembled except for a few things non of which would affect the position of the doors. Weber has sent me both doors and a back panel, which I have installed and the doors are no better. Thursday night I takled with a supervisor at Weber who spent at...

Thanks Pete, I have called weber numerous times and they seem to think from one of the pictures of the back panel that the slight bend at the area of the right rear caster is the problem. they are sending me 2 doors, back panel, and two sets of hardware to assemble the stuff. Yes it was...

I just bought a new Black summit to replace my two 15 year old Platinum series grills. I was in hog heaven with the big new beast. I was surprised at how much bigger it looked than the old grills. Then I cooked on it and as I expected there will be some relearning to produce the same quality...

Well I took her apart today and although I didn't find anything really wrong-- Brushed the burners to be sure the holes ware all open (no cracks), cleaned all of the flavoriser bars on bench grinder with medium crimped wheel (both outside and inside, degreased the bottom tray and the grease...

Gene you bought the grill at Walmart? if so you are the first owner, call Weber cs and tell them what it has broken and scratched. They will probably send the parts to make it new again at no charge (since you are the first owner. Good luck Gary

Lee Thanks, not only have I not checked them but I even have a spare set if needed. Will check them as soon as this great rain stops and It drys out. Gary

I have had two platinum series I for over 15 years and they have been great. However, for the past six months one of them has been flareing up way too much. I have burned it off many times and cleaned the drip tray often. I still get lots of flare ups with almost everything I cook. Last night...

The easiest way to convert from lp to ng is to determine thw btu for each burner and look up on google for a conversion chart for orifice. This will give you the size drill bit to use. It will be a numbered bit some where between 1 and 80. They aren't stocked by HD or lowes. However you can get...

Bob all propane regulators are set up for 11 inches water column pressure so you should be good to go. Just use fittings as necessary and a new hose would be good. As to your quesrion about valves use gas valce grease r plumbers grease. A small Amount is all that is necessary. Will send details...

Been a while since I looked but I think the manifold is 1/8 npt. If you need a quick connect a plumbing house should have such. Get one that matchesa the hose. Or adaptor to screw hose to manifold. All that stuff is standard pipe sizes and threads

I got a real steal from cl last year a 200 for $20 and it was in really good shape but missing the catch pan. I bought the catch pan and added the thermometer from the 220 (really easy just drill one hole and it is done). I am like all the others this grill is really amazing as to how it will...

Well Finally for the first time I have ever seen a 140 on cl there is a brand new one in a box for 125 http://austin.craigslist.org/hsh/2331419962.html Chris is going to call him and see if he will sell for less than 100. If so chris is going to get it i think.

George I think the best corosion remover is PB Blaster. Give it a try!

I see almost no discussion of the 140(electric) here since 2008. My two boys have moved to an apartment where they can have no charcoal or propane and since dad taught them to grill they are always dominating the grill at parties they attend and I would like to see them get something they can...

Wow the table was stored inside and the grill was outside covered for the last 10 or so years. Note the wood handles http://austin.craigslist.org/for/2200510877.html weber Going tonight to north austin to pick it up. Hope it is as nice as she and the add said it was. Will post real before...

Jim If it is really an O ring then you can get any O ring in any material known to man from McMaster-carr. The problem is what size. They have some guides to help in selection (difficult to use). I have obtained from them O-Rings I use in refurbishing pellet guns (in 3 different materials) but...

My neighbor is going to give me a slaB of granette to install on an old genesis 1100 frame. Do you guys think the frame will support that much weight? It would be 18 X 49 inches and 1 inch thick. Weight over 200 pounds at least. (woops fingers wander poorly with blackberry) Your thoughts please
