Just thought I'd write to give an update to those interested. I have broken down the grill completely and and am in the process of cleaning everything with 409, 0000 steel wool, and paper towels. I spoke with a customer rep from weber today and should be expecting in approximately 10 business days three new knobs, two new casters, a catch pan holder, and a crossover tube with free of charge center burner because apparently they have redesigned the crossovers so you need a new center burner too. As many people have said before webers customer service is great and saved me headaches from ordering a crossover tube somewhere else, getting it, and realizing it's not going to work. She also verified that my grill is a Genesis 3000 and was manufactured in 1998. I plan to polish the frame as suggested tomorrow and have also picked up some pine that will be used to replace the old wood since I was unable to find teak. I plan to seal the pine with a spar varnish. I decided to go with a semi-gloss over satin hoping for a little more protection, hopefully it's not too glossy.
Wow, that was long winded. I'll try to post pictures when I get the rest of the parts and get things put back together.
Thanks,
