Well, not literally but once again I find myself in possession of a gas barbecue who's heat output is less than I'd really like. Even with plenty of preheating things "fizzle" rather than "sizzle" on it. (A B&Q "Barcelona" barbecue)
I *do* have a spare adjustable HP regulator kicking around but it's fiddly to get adjusted right and it needs a different cylinder so it's not terribly useful. Hacking into the existing regulator to up the pressure doesn't appeal greatly (although I have done it before for a different crap barbecue) and I'm wondering whether it would be possible to fit larger (or enlarge the existing) jets?
Before anyone says it, I *know* that this is no doubt illegal, dangerous etc. but a gas barbecue that *doesn't* perform to my expectations is injurious to my mental well-being. I may blow myself to kingdom come or the barbecue may self immolate but I don't care.
I went along to our local Calor main agent to see if I could get replacement jets but they don't keep any spares and I suspect trying to order up spares for a Chinese barbecue from B&Q is a bit of a non-starter.
Any suggestions (apart from "don't" which I'm incapable of hearing/reading)? Are gas jets fairly standard sizes and threads and would I be able to get something that fits from somewhere else?
