Cast Iron Burner (LP grill) Question
 
I have a LP grill which has a cast iron burner. A portion of the
burner has become "stopped up" so that the flames only come out of a
portion. Just recently flames have also begun to come out of the
tubes at the handles. I believe the flames coming from the handles is
a result of the obstructions in the burner which I believe may be
rust. Is it possible to remove this rust, or would it be better to
purchase a new burner. If purchasing a new burner is the best
solution, which burner should I get. I would rather not go with
original parts, since this grill is slightly more than a year old and
is already having problems. Thanks!

contact manufacture or the grill you may get replacements free??
I got free ones from my MemebersMark from Sams.
If you have to buy replacements get stainless steel ( cost more last longer)
You can also drill out the burners some times .
Good luck!!

Try soaking it in CLR or Sanivac.

Cast Iron Burner (LP grill) Question
 
Welcome to the club. I have a Sam's Club unit and I believe I may send it
packing this summer as my burners are doing the same thing and it's not a
year old. Only had to clean the burners once in ten years on my weber and
that was due to spiders not corrosion. May call grand hall see if they'll
give me new ones.
