You might be wondering why anybody would ever care about a stupid metal tube. More specifically, the newest Weber gas grills (ex: Weber Genesis S-330) do not utilize a cross-over ignition system. This did the trick and ended up giving a real nice flame pattern.Įverything got put back together and for a total investment of $30 I have another sweet little Weber grill in the collection!Īll of this fiddling around with the cross-over tube got me into a grumpy old man routine because Weber isn’t making things like they used to. I fixed this by gently cleaning each port with the sharp end of a pair of tweezers.

The back burner tube did have quite a few clogged gas ports. It takes three minutes and no tools no big deal. This sounds daunting but really only requires removing two butterfly nuts. In order to replace the cross-over tube you need to loosen up the burner assembly. On a serious note, when you are dealing with rusty grill parts I really, really, really recommend using Liquid Wrench instead of WD-40. They sold me the part for $5, waived the shipping fee, and told me that it would be here in five days. I knew I had plenty of time because I had called Weber customer service and told them what I was up to and that I needed a new cross-over tube. I used some Liquid Wrench, a pair of needle nose pliers and patience to pull the last of the cross-over ignition tube out of the two burners. The cross-over tube had crumbled away with just the ends stuck into the two burners. What was busted was the cross-over ignition tube. It turns out that the two burner tubes were in pretty nice shape.

They came out looking okay.not incredible but definitely usable. I did rub the grates with some Crisco and baked them in an oven for a couple of hours to lay down an initial seasoning layer. If you want to go nuts and get ALL the rust off of your cast iron then you can hook those bad boys up to a battery charger. I did not do a rigorous rust removal procedure. I scraped massive amounts of surface rust off the grates with a couple different sized wire brushes. The grates were severely rusted but did not need to be replaced. This was a pleasant surprise as I have never owned cast iron grill grates and I hadn’t realized that Weber made them for the Silver A. When I picked the grill up I saw that it came with the heavy duty cast iron grates. I was excited to finally have one of these little classics for my own collection 🙂 My brother-in-law has one of these and I have always enjoyed cooking on his. This is a little two burner Weber Genesis Silver A. An hour later I had this classic Weber gasser sitting in my front yard.

I shot the folks an email and they called me back to let me know that the grill grate needed to be replaced and the burner tubes were shot. I was surfing Craigslist last weekend and saw a listing for a Weber Genesis Silver for $25.

While most of the parts for the Silver Series are readily available there are some that I have not been able to find.

The Genesis Silver C is a full sized three burner grill with an extended frame that housed a side burner. The Silver B was the most popular grill in the Silver series. The Silver B is a full sized three burner gas grill that does not have a side burner.

The Genesis Silver A is no longer available but Weber’s new Spirit grills are amazing alternatives. The grill is just like a terrier: Cute, Compact and Powerful. The Silver A is a two burner gas grill that I flat out love. All of these grill have burner tubes that run from left to right and employ the cross over ignition system. Production of the Genesis Silver Series stopped in 2005 but there are still a ton of these grills in use. Parts List For the Genesis Silver Grills (A, B, C) The original post from 2014 about the restoration I did for a two burner Silver A is included after the parts list. There has been enough interest in the Genesis Silver line of grills (A, B and C Models) that I decided to go ahead and publish a complete parts list for these grills.
