Easy DIY Repair: Gas Grill Burner Replacement
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 06. 2017
- My gas grill sat unused for over a year because the burners had rusted out and it was too dangerous to use. Turns out it's a simple, inexpensive repair -- once you clean out all the grease, grime, rust, and gunk that's built up over time.
In this video I show you how I cleaned up the grill and had to use some ingenuity to attach the new burners since the shelf they rested on had rusted out.
I had purchased a new universal gas burner at Home Depot for $15, but I found a 4-pack on Amazon.com for use $13, a big savings. This is the universal gas bruner replacement set I bought from third-party seller BBQMANN:

That pit looks much older than what you said! Good job.
I love the angle bracket idea because I have a couple that are rusted out and I was wondering how to get new ones to fit and now you just gave me a great idea and it looks like it would last a lot longer than originally. Great video thank you for the tip. I am also changing out my heat shields because when I lift them up they just crumble. I am going with heavy gauge stainless steel for my burners and heat shields. I also about a few years ago replaced my grill grates with heavy gauge stainless steel that I also bought from Amazon for my uniflame gas grill.
Nice job! I got an old grill and was thinking the same way you did it! Good stuff ........thumbs up!
Thank you for this, I've had a gas smoker combo grill that has been just intimating and now I think I have the confidence to clean it up.
Ha! A messy as heck job but completely doable. Go for it!
Just ordered a replacement kit from Amazon. Have had a grill for quite a while that just isn't delivering the heat i want. was considering all sort of modifications, but ultimately just going to replace burners and tents. was surprised to see you didn't replace the tents. i've often thought of just using some 2 x 2 angle iron. figured that would do a good job or trapping/radiating heat. Great job. thanks. :)
Thanks! I probably should have replaced them...but they seemed to otherwise be in good condition once cleaned up and I was thinking the burners were the real problem. Maybe the whole package would've been better. Cheers!
Have any more videos with this grill?
What I don’t understand is why when I find burners on amazon some of them say they’ll fit my model but the dimensions are different. You did a nice job improvising. I like your mentality, better to repair than just throw away stuff.👍
Thanks! I think we're too wasteful in society and though I could be much, much better myself, I do try to fix before discarding
I ordered mine from this site and they turned out to be pretty good grillpartsreplacement.com/search?q=burners
very educational, thanks!
Thanks!
Great video. I just purchased a OKJoe convo grill and the gas side is horribly rusted. I think I may be able to salvage it thanks to this vid. Happy smoking.
Thanks! A relative just gave me their used grill which needs some cleanup work to it, so looks like I'll be having another go at it too. This time I'm going to be using a product called Super Clean. The company sent me it to test out so this should be a good indication if it works. I also plan on using it to clean my pickup truck's engine bay, which it supposedly works on too with no scrubbing. I've never tried smoking, though I do watch videos about it often. I may have to try my hand at it one day. Cheers!
Great workmanship 🔥🥩🥩🍗🍗🌭🌭🍖🍖🥗🥗🍻👌👍
There was a tray underneath the bbq I removed that coz it was rust do we really need that
Beautiful
Thanks!
Love the video. The one I got for free is in a little bit worse condition. Would like to know if all the burner replacements are the same or is there different sizes.
There are different sizes, but it’s length not width. There are adjustable ones available, but I just measured my old ones
Nice work repairing your grill. Someone just gave me a grill in similar condition. I also plan to make a bottom tray from some scrap metal. I learned that I can use a circular saw with a blade for cutting metal. Fun project, thanks for the video
Good deal! I love seeing sparks fly! Cheers
Thanks a lot
You 're welcome. Hope you found it helpful
Amazing job, bu I would chip in 20 bucks to help you buy a new BBQ. :)
nice job nice burners barbecue look like you been in a slump
Did you have to check the BTU on the burner when you order them
I did not check the BTUs, just their size (length) to ensure they matched the old ones. TBH, I didn't even think to check the BTUs and looking at their listing I don't even see it listed, nor on any similar replacement models.
How do you remove and put back the burners from the gas?
Most of them pull straight away from the gas line.
Can i replace my clover leaf burners for some different ones?
While I can't say for certain, I don't see why not. However, what you need to look at is where your burners connect to gas inlet in the oven. The problem you might have is not having enough inlets. Where I had five inlets and was able to just reattach five new burners, you might have only one or two inlets because your burners are in a cloverleaf pattern. They take the gas from one point and spread it out wider over the four "leaf" area, so if you replace them with a different style of burner, you won't have enough connection points. But that's really just a guess since I've not actually seen the cloverleaf style grill. Good luck!
Yeah how did those tubes connect up to whatever other plumbing?
They actually just slide in. There's a port that sticks out for each tube and the replacement fits inside
Nice work repairing this rather than tossing her
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I need to fix mine but the rear burner supports are all rusted out. How's that aluminum holding up? I also have some angle aluminum, but am worried about Galvanic corrosion with steel screws in an aluminum support.
I was eventually gifted a new grill, but when the old one was finally trashed several years later, the aluminum support I put in was still going strong. I saw no evidence of galvanic corrosion. Maybe over time it would have become more apparent, but certainly as a stopgap measure the "fix" was fine
you can just lay them in, it works fine... they don't have to be fastened down unless you're transporting it.
As the aluminum melts. 😮
Looking for new burners 19 inches for my Nextgrill, can you help?
Check Amazon. That’s where I picked mine up. They were adjustable too and quite affordable
I'd like to know how the gas is connected to the burners
In the video (around 4:00 or so) you will see in the lower part of the screen protrusions that I'm sticking the replacement burners in. There nozzles in them that the new burners fit over that are connected by a tube that runs the length of the grill that is connected to the gas tank. That's how the gas gets from the tank to each of the burners. Hope that helps.

How do I properly install the gas line to a Stok Quattro grill
@@DavidMartinez-dg4ft Sorry about the delayed response. I'm also not sure how you would install the gas line to that grill. These burners are simple universal replacements that slip right on...which is about my speed! Good luck!
Great video thanks for sharing!
@@HomesteadDIY how do I put back the new burner with the gas line
It didn’t show what to do on the other end where it actually connects to the gas source....
Sorry, it just slides into the existing tube slot.
No explanation of how to remove the burner tube from the opposite end of the screwed end
Sorry, it just slips in. Cheers.
He fast fowarded over the most important part. Removing and replacing the 4 burners. That’s the whole reason I was watching.
Could use self tapping screws,lol
Remember ya get what ya pay for,lol
Heh. In most cases yes, but this is a simple design concept: a bit of metal tubing with some holes drilled into them. No need to overpay for that. They actually outlasted the grill! lol
Be eaiser to sand blast it lol
You’re not wrong about that. It would have been just as messy but would have went a lot faster
Buy new parts M8
Waste of time watching him clean,lol
bla bla bla....
That grill needs a nice power wash
