About Gas Grills

LP NEWBIE asked:


I have just bought my first gas grill. After connecting the tank and opening the valve (with all burners off) I am getting a smell of the gas. I have done the leak check they recommend, but can’t find any leaks. Is this normal for a gas grill? Anything else I can check?

I have a CharBroil gas grill. Last year I always had to turn on the gas and use a match to light it, the ignitor didn’t work but other than that it’s been a good grill. Went to use it and it wouldn’t light. I thought it was out of gas and got a refill, even though the canister didn’t fill empty. It still won’t work. Obviously seems something is blocking gas from flowing to the grill. Don’t know much about grills and their parts but it’s a nice, really large grill so I hate to toss it if this is something that is easy to fix. Any suggestions what to check?
