    In my case, I had one burner flaring up badly. Thought it was rusted through but after pulling out and inspecting it, it looked ok. When I looked inside I saw a dense spider web that was blocking flow. A small twig and some compressed air and voila! back to grilling! Thanks for the "how to". really helped with disassembly.

    Hey man thanks! Think you are going to get my wife out of a tizzy for not having her gas grill and, "I'm just going to get a new one." I take it the parts should not be too hard to obtain.. Lastly, ours did have not a factory fitted cover which was a big mistake. We tried an aftermarket and the wind just ruined it. I think the fitted cover will retard a lot of moister inside the grilling unit. Again, thanks for a nice post.

    do you clean/scrape the burnt food off with a wire grill brush or will this destroy the cast iron / coating? ive just bought a char broil and am unsure whether i need to use plastic brush when cold or if i can use wire brush

    • @JONSDIY
      @JONSDIY  Год назад

      Yes I do use a wire brush. Plastic brush will not get the job done. Anyway, I doubt that a wire brush will do any harm to cast iron. Allowing the grill to sit out in the rain and continuously get wet will allow the coating to rust and start to flake then it does not matter what type of brush you use. Overall, not buying a plastic grill cover will always shorten the life of the iron components on your grill. I always spray a couple of coats on my grates with PAM and let it sit for a while before my first use of the grill.

    • @JONSDIY
      @JONSDIY  3 года назад

      Use a pair of plyers to widen them and then put a kink on the ends so they grip the burner. It could also be you are not trying to clip it back on to the ignitor that has a shallow concave area to its width. Some (not mine) actually have a specific burner that the ignitor attaches too. Not important where you put that burner in the line up but the ignitor is designed to attach to that one. Non of mine had it but I was told it exists on some of the burners. I was yelled at for not including it in the video. Mine did not have it so I could not show it in the demonstration. Seems to be a change on some of the later models.

    You did not get new cross over tubes with that new kit? I didn't see you put the old one's back on or new ones on. At the end of the video you are cooking steak and it looks like you only have flame on the left side. Do you manually light the others?

      Dave, you are correct, the new kit did not come with cross over tubes. I did not re-install the old crappy ones. Second you are correct. Each of my burners can be turned on/off but I need to have the second from the left on to ignite them to get started. Turning only 2 burners on saves gas.

    Unfortunately, master forge screwed the ignitors on to the burners and the screws themselves are too corroded for me to unscrew them to replace the burners. The clip was a much better idea. Since I can't just simply remove the burners to replace them, I'm not sure what to do. It seems like I have to replace the burners and the ignitors. And how does one even change the battery on the ignitor?

      Chris, I would recommend buying a new set. This time before your very first grill day take the grates and spray them with PAM. Then let sit and put on a second coat of PAM. Allow it to dry and then not only will your food not stick to the grates but they will last 10 times longer. Mine are the originals and that why I did not have to replace them. But if your set on keeping them, I would take them to the garage and grab a grinder and put a metal wire wheel on it and remove the top layer until all look new.

      Not really. Mine were so bad I could not put them back on. And they did not come with the new set. So I did not re-use them. Eagle eye there rpatric21!
      Thanks for the comment

    I would love to know the measurements of your grease tray. The charbroil grill that I have I can nolonger find a grease tray for it. The model number of my grill is 463411911.

      Lilly, My grease pan is not a separate part on my grill. It is all referred to as the Firebox in my manual. My grill is model 463436215. But to answer you question my grease pan is 28 inches.

      Thank for letting me know. The one I have is old and the grease pan rusted beyond fixing. I guess I have to get someone to make one for me . Because the grill is still useable. I am just trying to bring it completely back to life. Lol
