So I’m restoring my very first Weber Genesis 1000 and everything was going smoothly until I realized that the back burner control valve was seized and I couldn’t push down to turn it. I tried a few light taps with a hammer, some WD40 and brake cleaner to no avail. The screws were stripped out and I have to get the right size bit to try and drill them out. My question is, if I can’t get it opened to grease the spring, how do you replace it? I don’t see any screws or bolts on the manifold holding it in.
Also, does anyone know the drill size I’d need to drill the screws out or what size the screws are once I get them drilled out?
