    bone stock save for the block lift that came on it with the open country m/t.
    had this grill for three years. went to fire it up last night, one burner will work at minimum heat, but not all three at once. anyone got any insight to this issue? there is plenty of propane in the tank btw, and no, I am not getting rid of it to buy a charcoal grill. I think it's the burners, but I may be wrong. cheers

    if its cast iron burners the holes could be plugged up on it. I have a Brinkman that I have replaced the burners in due to that same problem. They dont make them like they used to

    Well, It's best just to buy a replacement burner. No reason to tinker around. It's cheap coin and you will still have eyebrows for the holidays. Sounds like the burner has some corrosion and is blocked up. Gas as you know is nothing to goof with. I have changed a few out myself. Same type of problem, a restriction.

    Grab the name of the grille, model number and head on over to Lowe's or Home Depot and have at it. Make sure to test the connections with soapy water before you strike that match.

    Hey look everybody.....I think he invited us ALL over for 'burgers and dogs.....what a nice guy.
