Hi:
Since joining the forum last month, I've started taking better care of my grill including cleaning, looking for rust, etc. One thing I noticed today is all three gas valves don't always pop up when in the off position. Sometimes they need a little assistance lifting on the knob. The valves do not seem tight to adjust the gas flow, but they do not hit the safety stop/lock when off. I've looked at the trim ring which marks the various positions, but they do not seem to be the issue. Looking at taking valves apart and lubricating them on another string isn't something I relish at this point. Any thoughts?
