Converting Weber Spirit e310

[Steve Hoch]

Plus, you are using Weber factory parts to do it. Again, no more dangerous than if you had to replace the burner tubes. I understand why Weber won't sell you the parts or warranty the grill if you said you converted it and had a problem. Let's face it, there are some people that are capable of screwing this up as simple as it is to do.

For the record, I’m not worried about the warranty. I would be out a lot more money if I sold the grill at a loss versus converting. I don’t believe there any many neighborhoods or people around my area looking for NG grills so I would essentially have to give it away. My main question remains:

If I am swapping manifold for manifold, is it safe? I would even go as far to pay someone help install it if I don’t feel comfortable doing it right.

If you are capable of assembling a new grill out of the box you should be ok swapping the manifold.

No special tools. Everything screws together

It's no harder than swapping out the burners or assembling the grill. What gets more difficult is converting a manifold. Otherwise it's EZPZ

Cool, so short of completely installing it wrong, it’s easy to accomplish? My main (and only) goal is a safe conversion.

Yes. Easy install. No special tools needed.

Can someone recommend the best site to buy a manifold? Weber won’t sell anything directly, for reasons stated above.

Sean, look back at post #11 in this thread. @DanHoo posted links for everything you need and he probably did it by lowest price. You can use the parts #'s to double check his work.

Hey all, finally getting around to doing this. I should have taken a picture, but I imagine I need to put a screw back in here, right?

 

[Fred Smith]

Was it missing when you bought it? Did you get around to buying and installing the parts mentioned on post 11?

This is how long it took me lol, I’m installing the new manifold now. There was no screw on any of them.
