Hi WKC!
First of all, thank you for sharing your enthusiasm for Kettles, I've just picked up a 1995 Performer SS Gas Assist, in great condition save a few missing parts. This is my first post on the WKC forum.
The tabs on cleaning kettles, and advice read here have been incredible. I couldn't imagine tackling this rebuild without the resources here - thank you!
What I need help with is this - I cannot for the life of me find the model number of this unit. I've followed the advice, tabs, threads, blog posts etc etc to find the model number of this unit - but all have eluded me. Finding parts without a model number has been a task... so I thought I would reach out here to see if anyone would be willing to help.
Here's what I've tried:
- Top right corner of the owners manual: Don't have an owners manual unfortunately.
- Under the stainless charcoal box lid, the only number is in the bottom right corner of the ignition panel, and that is 8099. The stamp on the vent indicates EO, and according to the resources available here, this model was made in 1995. I've attached a photo.
- No sticker on the rear of the unit.
I've tried back searching through the schematics on Weber.com, but still cannot find the model number.
Any advice?
