Why did you not show the entire reassembly of the gas tubes. Not interested in all the painting, drilling and tapping. After watching all the things I didn't need to know, the one main thing I wanted to see in this video, the installation of the gas manifold onto the 3 gas tubes, you blew off that part and didn't show. Should the tubes be tight or able to move in the tube socket? Are there any adjustments for the air shutters on the 3 tubes to get the right flame? Waste of time. Maybe another video somewhere else will show it.

Great restoration! You can’t beat these old grills. The new ones just seem so “flimsy” compared to the old ones. I have an old Genesis 3 burner that I’ve kept going for many years, but it has come time to replace. Trying to find a good used one that I can rebuild.

Thanks for the video, FYI the burner tubes can be lifted and pulled out to the left with out disassembling the right side.

Great Video. One clarification. To remove the burner assembly, you do NOT have to remove the black support under ignition side of the grill. I just spent a few hours trying to drill out screws , gave up, and then tried to pull assembly out from other side and it can be removed!!! have to remove ignition. See this video for example of that -> ua-cam.com/video/NRBpTcjydBs/v-deo.html

I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.

How is that running, there are bolts in the crank

IH. Great High Torque low RPM engines. 7 Mpg towing or not.

I'm so glad I found your video I'm doing the exact same thing you are to the exact same model Grill. I'm also running into the same issue with the three screws attaching the burner tubes that you're showing in video time 6:40. I'm hoping you can maybe tell me what size drill bit you use to drill those out and subsequently the tap size, bolt size and etc. to put in the new bolts. Hopefully you're still monitoring your UA-cam account 🤞 your help would be so gratefully appreciated.

Those that drilled out the two manifold screws - how? I’ve tried several hardened bits (cobalt M42), 3in1 oil, 1/3hp corded drill, nothing seems to be working to drill them out. The bits are drifting & I feel like it’s drilling through the aluminum, not the screws. Appreciate any advice.

Fantastic im going to do the same

Correction. International lettering will be white (not red).

Great vid. Thank you.

thank you and you are a life saver. thank you for all that you do!

I bought the same kit from CyberWeld in December 2014. Sadly, I'm just now breaking them all out to use for the very first time. LOL

Hello, I’m looking for help setting up the wiring. I have four wires going to the pump, green to the ground, I put the white which is my common to L2 and put my two hots ( red and black) to A and L1. I think I’m doing it wrong. The wiring diagram I found on line shows on hot going to L2 and the other hot being switched between A and L1. My question is what do I do with the white common from the electrical panel.

I have been looking at this pump and cannot seem to find anything very recent. Can you update this with the current condition of the EcoPump and how it has been working?

Job well done

did the carriage bolt facing out ward work?

You did a really nice job. Every defect the factory built into that grill, you have now redone better than their original product. Specifically, the stainless socket screws and carriage bolts were a clever solutions to the inexcusable corrosion issues. EXCUSE MY RANT: Weber's foreign fabricators must use some of the worst paint prep and worst paint on earth to paint their cabinet bases. My cabinet was so horribly rusted I had to disassemble the whole base of the grill, strip it, and repaint it. I think the factory did not even prime those bases. Genesis and Spirit grills were imported from China, which might explain the horrible quality. I thought Weber would be American made. In the future, I will try to buy real American made grills.

I am in the process of refurbishing the exact same grill. New grates, new starter assembly which was under warranty, new burners,new castors and new stainless flavour bars. I think I will go the extra step and have the cast Aluminium pit box cleaned by sand blasting

Thank you!!!

Thank you! I was able to replace my burner tubes thanks to you.

I had the same grill but it had the side burner. I chose to replace it with a new one because the cart was quite rotten. I could literally tear the bottom pan out with my hands. I'm surprised that your burners are so bad. Mine were still in very good condition.

The difference in quality with Webers is obvious from first use and from the ability to repair. Reminds me of quality shoes, which can be restored/repaired during the lifetime of an adult. Not possible with cheap shoes. You did an amazing job with your grill and it was obvious that you enjoyed the restore process.

Good video. Will rebuild mine and get another 8 years of service. Can't beat a Weber grill!

What is the replacement screw size?

I have EP-300 version. he two rear tubes work fine but the first burner does not work. i don't understand how the LP gets to the first cross bar. any guidance?

You did it the hard way. You only need to remove the burners from the far left. Dont touch anything on right side by knobs.

You forgot the heat reflector that goes between the bottom tray and burner tubes to evenly disperse heat.

I now have a plan to restore my Genesis and look forward to the challenge. I have several Weber grills but the Genesis is the largest and they do last a long time and well worth the extra money. thanks for the video and helpful tips. How long did it take you to do the full restore?

Weber’s quality has gone down. My grill less than a year old needs a manifold. My old Weber lasted 12 years without a problem. Disappointed

Great video. I've got the exact same grill and needed something that showed how to disassemble and clean/replace the burners and crossover tube. I recently determined that mud wasps had plugged up the front burner tube on the gas valve end - and it was taking forever to get the middle and rear burners to light. This was very helpful. I'm hoping that I don't have the fastener issues you had. I'm not into drilling, tapping, and grinding.

Can you help me where you buy parts?

Just finished my rebuild! Went great now I’m making some ribs!!

Next time show us the screw removals.

Time for a update!!

2 of my 3 burner tube bolts are seized (the lower 2 when standing in front). Not looking forward to trying to drill them out to likely have to re tap. I don't have screw extractor kit and wondering if I can just drill right through them and try and chisel them out (then drill larger size and retap accordingly). And hope replacing the ignitor assembly isn't too hard. Will recommence in the morning when its light out. Thanks for nice video.

Great job! Getting ready to rebuild mine.

I had to drill out the 2 bolts that secure the manifold , that’s it

So slow at talking and then shows me nothing about how to do things. I wait to see how he sands the rest off with so much corrosion and then the next frame is painted with primer. THE actual work is what we want to see and NOT the talk about the work.

If you read Ee er instructions on their site you will see that a lot of what you did was unnecessary. For example the three screws holding down the burners should not be removed. They are their just as hold downs. Same for bottom panel. Easy to remove following manual directions. Beware

Just a few tips...those screws on the left side that hold the burner tubes down don't actually get removed when taking out the burner tube assembly and says so in the instructions. The tubes just slip under them. Also, the propane tank isn't meant to sit on the bottom but it's supposed to hang on the tank hook and retainer that's part of the tank gauge on the right sidewall. I like to replace the bolts on the right side with stainless bolts (not carriage bolts) and that eliminates your grinding. What I like about Weber is great product support and part availability for decades. You can keep one of these going for 25+ years thanks to the design and ease of repair which makes them far superior to all other grills.

Best of luck in your rebuild.

Thanks for this. I have a similar unit which I will rebuild. My igniter is *still working first time every time after 8 years

Nice video and great work. I do understand from other video and the comments here, that drill out and re-tapping the screws on the ends of the burner tubes was not necessary because they are just placement posts that should not need loosening or removal, ...but then again you made an improvement to a somewhat flawed design. I'm doing the same job this morning ... Coincidentally I am also accompanied by a black retriever/helper (also with an orange collar!).

All - thanks for sharing the warranty info. Had no idea burner tubes had a 10-year warranty! My replacement parts are on their way from Weber.

Weber stainless is junk rusts out a few yrs poor quality grills are made with steel screws .three times the price ss screws will add extra 5.00 Skimp on quality

Great idea. Thanks for sharing

Thank you! That was very enlightening. I'm doing something similar to my father-in-laws Genesis 310 and wanted to see what someone else had done. 👍 Thanks!

Good Video, Those bolts you replaced with the m8 was extra work you didn't have to do. The video from grillparts.com said not to loosen those bolts, those bolts are there as a guide for you to slide your burner tubes under, their video said do not loosen or tighten those bolts they will break. Weber should have that on the instruction sheet that comes with the burner tubes, I was lucky to watch their video all you have to do is clean out the crud from under the heads of those bolts and the new tubes will slide right in.It would really help others if you edited your video and told others that those bolts are just guides. here is the link for the video www.grillparts.com/weber/silver_a.asp?product_id=7507
