Gas Grill Problem
I have a Charbroil gas grill that I usually add wood chips wrapped in
foil or smoke things in my lil chief before grilling and get decent results usually. Recently the grill has been exhibiting some problems like the flames seeming to be bigger or whispier than they should be, the smell of unburnt gas(I think) and a fine soot. Is my burner manifold shot or is there something else wrong that could cause these problems? Thanks, Matt Mika |

They get in there and block the gas flow to the burners so you get a bad gas to air mixture. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

Simple enough to clean it out and you'll be back in business. -- Brick(Youth is wasted on young people) |
