Hi all. I was hoping someone with a baby q would do me a favour. I would like to know how long it takes to reach 400 F From cold and how hot does it get at 20 minutes on high. Thanks if any one has time for a quick
test. Doc

Hi Doc have just put ours away in the van as we are about to leave. Just reading between the lines and it sounds as if you are having trouble heating yours up quickly. I had trouble with ours after two years and it would take ages to heat up. Rang weber and was told to wash the jet assembly in hot soapy water, assemble it to
test and if there was no variation in heating to let them know and they would send a new regulator free of charge. They did so very promptly and it made all the difference in heating. I even think to bbq was
well out of warranty. It was all a very satisfying experience from weber. If this is your problem I hope it helps. cheers, Brian

Yes that is the problem Brian. Have called weber and new reg/valve assembly should be on its way. I tried a new hose and reg prior to this and no change. Today i pulled the valve to bits and gave it a good clean. (Already cleaned the burner last week). Cleaning the valve has made a difference but i still think it was hotter quicker when it was new. Anyway we can now get to 450 in about 20 mins so that's ok. Will see if the new kit adds any improvement.doc
