Thank you for saving me $27 for a replacement kit and an hour of work taking my grill apart! I didn't have any shims but bamboo skewers worked great as well.
Ha! No problem! 🍻
Mind blown! It’s a beautiful Sunday morning here and I was about to disassemble my system and try bending them flush again so I can grill burgers this afternoon. Buddy, I owe you a cold one. Saved me a lot of time and probably headache. Thanks so much for this video.
Just want to say thank you for making this video as I was able to fix my ash catchers in 2024 thanks to this! I will add this is the only video suggesting a fix vs a replacement in my search results, so the knowledge share is even more appreciated!
That’s awesome!
You really made my day (and made me save 30 bucks). Thank you so much from Italy!
Grill Sergeant, I was about to drop 20 bones on new cleaning fins and waste 20 to 30 minutes of my Saturday afternoon to install it. It took me longer to find shims in my garage than do to this. Much appreciate the video brother!!!
Awesome to hear Thomas! Glad I could help!
I’m going to try this with chopsticks
Damn dude you are the kettle whisperer, I am going to have to try this👌
The Kettle Whisperer!? Love that name! HA!
This is exactly what I needed. My kettle wings are bent way up collecting birds. Thanks Andrew.
Awesome, man! Mine are doing the same thing. Not only does that bend affect their ability to sweep all the dust out, but it affects their ability to regulate temperature! I found that my grill wouldn't hold temp as well because air was getting under the blades. It even affects the grill's ability to snuff out coals after the cook, which normally happens pretty quickly.
I was about to try to take mine apart but I was pretty sure that little pin would break or something. I don't have any shims but I'm sure I'll be able to find something I can use. Thanks again!
Thanks for sharing this. Not one I have but you never know.
Kettles are AMAZING! My kettle from the 70's preforms just as good as a brand new one. What other grill / bbq can do that?
The kettles are for sure dust magnets, I just rinse my lid off with water but when the snow starts to fly, I wipe them down with a rag and some citrus safe. Cheers, and I didn't think the shim would work but you did it.
Can't believe you would doubt me brother. LOL jk I was just as surprised myself!
This actually worked! Not as great a seal as installing a new one, but a whole lot better than it was before!
Just what the doctor ordered. Easy peasy. Like others said "saved money and time."
Thank you! I rarely comment on videos but had to leave a comment on this one. Exactly what I was looking for and saved me a lot of time as I was planning to take the sweeper off of my kettle to reshape it. Your way is much easier. Liked and subscribed.
Awesome man! 🍻 Glad I could help!
@@GrillSergeant hahaha i actually bought a new sweeper. ill try it
Excellent tip to flatten the weber blades, worked a treat so thanks saved me time trying to take it all apart..,,!!!👍
Thank you sir!! I used folded milk carton(wax board?) pieces as shims. Worked fine and now it's tight again!!
Works perfectly. Wish I found this video before I replaced my first system!
Right on! Cheers Nick!
@@GrillSergeant just curious. I just found your channel. Do you have any videos on your outdoor bbq setup? I am going to be setting one up in the spring and still looking for ideas.
I don’t but that could be a cool video idea
This is a great idea, I have had this issue with my grills for years. Thanks for sharing!
You just saved me a massive ball ache. Thank you.
Loooove your awesome kettle collection!!! That yellow....come to mama!!!!!!! :) :) :)
I know right! She is SOOOOO beautiful! I'll post a video soon about her soon...she changes colors to Orange when you put charcoal in her!
Grill Sergeant WHAAAAAAT!!! How did we not know about this awesome feature!! Ok so looking foward to that vid!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great job Andrew! My grills need some TLC
Todd show your Weber's some love and it will be "Grills Gone Wild!"
GREAT video.
I was browsing the 'Weber' website for a new OTCS but thought I'd check YT first to see if I could fix it.
So glad I stumbled onto this video.
Worked great! Not sure why other videos over complicated it
Sometimes you gotta keep it simple! 😂
That worked to fix the cleaning system. Thanks!
Thank you for the tip. I just fixed my kettle and it worked great.
Glad I found this video, now I can fix my new performer ash sweep that is a little loose.
My charcoal kept burning out to ash. I was 90% certain it was the fins. I cleaned and tried your method and it worked pretty well, still some gap. However my grill was now so clean I took ~7 mins to twist the handle off and pull the fins and perform an exaggerated bend of the fins and put it back together. Again less than 10 minutes. FYI, this is the first time in nearly 20 years I’ve had to do this for my performer. Weber makes greats kettles!
Thanks for the tip!
God bless you. This is so helpful.
🍻 Happy Grilling :)
Dude!!! Thank you !! 👍
No problem!
Thanks!
Dude! Thank you! 🍻
@@GrillSergeant you’re welcome! I picked some used kettles. One had the vents bowing up significantly from neglect and I was expecting to spend the time replacing the whole vent assembly. I assumed that the vents would not bend back down but your video showed me otherwise. You saved me time and effort.
Thank you for sharing the shim trick!
Thanks for the vid. My old one touch is like new now.
Thank you, that was easy
Oh sure, NOW you tell me after I already bought and installed a replacement one touch kit 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ah well, mine has been thru 10 years of heat, grease, and abuse, if I have to drop $20 into it after all it's been thru, I'm ok with that. I'll definitely keep this in mind for the future, with regular maintenence maybe I can avoid having to do this again lol. Good video brother
Ha! Cheers 🍻
Great info Grill Sergeant
Solid info Thanks man.
I hesitate to take a razor to the kettle. Frankly, there's also an issue of the central bit of the cleaning system getting gunky. If you're going to do a once a year cleaning, I'd prefer to take it completely apart, load it with degreaser, and hit it with a brush. Repeat one additional time in case of extra junk, and hit it with the hose. Having done that, we basically have a partially disassembled grill. Having disassembled the cleaning system, we have an expectation that, when reassembled, it'll rotate better. That said, if you're just unbending them, I've seen a similar trick with something like a nail as a pivot, rather than a shim.
Very nice tip's
Thanks man! Also love woodworking! Nice channel man!
Awesome tips on maintaining your grill. Don’t forget to try oven cleaner for a remarkable clean tub.
Grill on brother 😎✌🏼🇺🇸🗽
Works like a charm! Cheers GBA!
Grill Sergeant We’re still waiting on our Master Touch to come in. Apparently they were on back order.
I’ve tried several of your recipes and cooking over indirect heat. Everything comes out tasting phenomenal. I appreciate you sharing your recipes and cooking process with us.
✌🏼🇺🇸
@@GodBlessedAmerica Thank you bro! That comment made my day! Cheers!
Genius. Absolutely genius
Genius!!!
Cheers Mike! Hope all is well on your end!
My bigger concern with the bent arms is that you can't shut the air off completely. Thanks for the information.
Just did this with some paint mixer sticks!
Hey Tim! That’s awesome! Good to see you around!
Good Video, greetings from Germany
Very cool Andrew. Now if I move to where I can get some of these, will have you to clean it. Umm I mean I can clean it after watching you HA! Stay safe & take care of you all. Thanks for sharing eh :))
pretty cool fix.
Great tip will give it a try thanks.
Tri-Tip Junkie Nice, let me know how it works out for you. What part of California do you live in?
@@GrillSergeant will do LA county
Tri-Tip Junkie What! Same here! If you are ever in around Burbank / North Hollywood hit me up! Cheers man 🍻
@@GrillSergeant ok sounds good.
Hey Sergeant, do you have a Video on What does it mean the simbols on the Ash Tray and how to use them?
The Open pot and the flowing arrows and those? On the thing you move on the ash Tray to clean it.
Weber clean ash tray
Please help !! Hahaha Thanks in Advance Sergeant !!
Awesome thank you!
Cheers man!
Good job, thank you! Will try it :).
Nice hack 👌
Wow when youI want to come do my preformer? 10 years don't think I have cleaned anything other than the side table lol
Rusty Lamb Ha! 10 years!? I just got done restoring a 1973 kettle and it surprisingly wasn’t that bad!
i replaced mine with new ones from amazon for like $ 10;00
Any tips on how to flatten the damper vent on the lid? Mine is a smidge bent up
Hey Andrew, Cool trick! Thank you. Did paint the side panels black on your Performer? Looks good 👍
Hey Brad! I had that front peel and stick graphic printed at my work. It covers the full front of the performer.
@@GrillSergeant Looks awesome 👌
My Weber lid is bent. If you drop them they get out of round. What to do?
suggest a hard plastic putty knife instead of tue razor blade to scrape the bowl
I got my hands on a used 22 weber kettle. I went to go clean it and I notice the lid doesnt sit flush. I have to get it a light fist bump to have the lid seat completely. Is that correctable?
cool video, I liked it very much. Let's support each other. What do you say? I would be happy. Stay healthy and best regards Heiko
Crap. And I JUST got a replacement
Thanks!
