So, remember those "seals" that Char-Broil support person said get blown out over time? I just took the valve apart and there are no seals. The part that lets the gas in is metal on metal with some lubricant. They look to be in perfect condition and it isn't due to wear since all of them are leaking and at least one of the valves has never been used. It's like they weren't machined properly OR the spring need to be replaced but it also seems to be in perfect condition. Maybe I'll get some stronger springs to see if that fixes it.
