Question Gas Grill Problem

I have a 4 burner gas grill and two of the burners have a flame that shoots out of the ignition port, and will not go out. It will go up and down in size as you adjust the burner, but will not go out. It shoots out about 3 inches when the burner is on high. The other two burners ( the outer most ones) are fine. To light the burners, you push in a knob and turn it until it clicks.

Any ideas or is this something not to worry about?

Cool Re: Gas Grill Problem

Sounds like your burners are plugged up ... clean out the holes with a piece of wire the right size ...

Check the venturi tubes, they sell the cleaners at most hardware stores or a local bbq sales spot. Spiders like propane and natural gas. Sometimes they spin a little web in there.
