Has anyone had issues with the Weber Q? I've had the Q200 for several years and when it works it does a great job (though it is a bit heavy). When it doesn't work (which is when I'm ready to cook) it either won't light (even with a match) or the flame barely gets above the burner tube ... and no, it's not the propane tank. I've had to replace both the burner and the regulator (both free from Weber). I've done the "both valves off, turn bottle on slowly, wait 2 mins, turn grill on" thing and it helps ... sometimes ... but not always and I try to keep the burner tube clean (there may be several holes blocked but not that many).
It's to the point that I can't rely on this thing and we're going on a 3.5 week trip out west this summer and I NEED to have a grill that I can trust!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
John
My coleman does the same thing on a tank with a 4' hose,I use a disposable bottle and it always fires right up,helps when we need it right after arrival .
Then I hook up the big tank and hose (open valve) and by next day its normal and fine for the rest of the stay.
aggravating though.
