Hello and greetings. Thanks for letting me join you all! I found you because I was restoring a 1995 Weber Performer and I had to replace the ash sweep/vent system and my model has the "ash bar" which goes over the middle and I just could not get the H washer on as well as the bracket. Well low and behold I found a thread from 2009 where the gentlemen were talking about that very thing! They arrived at the same conclusion as me. Don't need the h washer It was great to have a confirmation of this! I finished about 98% of the refurb. I need to get a 5 lb bottle to go with the grill for the gas assist but that is about it except a few grommets. I am very happy with the restoration and look forward to many cooks!!! I throughly enjoyed doing the refurb too. I am going to keep my eye out for free or cheap kettles form now on!
