Hi guys,
I moved to a new apartment last week and the new landlord gave me his old Weber Gas Grill one of his old US tenants left behind some years ago. I am not sure how old it is but the last years it was sitting unprotected outside in his garden to rot and house stray cats...
From my research I am pretty sure that it is an older Weber Spirit E-310 (US model?). The label it has inside is not readable anymore. Unfortunately the gas bottle is also too big to fit underneath but I think that can be changed relatively easily. It is working and I had a first steak on it but I want to get it into a better condition.
This is my first gas grill, so I have more or less 0 experience with gas. My last grills all were coal. Thats why I am looking for some advise on how to best proceed from here.
I detached the 2 side tables to it better fits on my balcony. It looks pretty run down and is super rusty, outside on the edges of the main frame as well as inside out such as the gas pipes. I tried to clean it already and scraped of some dirt and rust. The attached pictures are after I cleaned it.
I saw a ton on videos and threads but as I am a bit lost I hope I can get some specific advise on what are the priorities to clean or change.
The first question is if it is even worth to repair and where would you start?
If more pictures are needed let me know.
Thanks a lot for your help on this journey
