So, you can tell that fuel can get into the bbq, but there's no longer a spark to ignite the propane? Or do you think there could be a blockage in the propane line going into the bbq? What model is it? And have you tried lighting it manually with a long necked lighter/match?

I'm not sure! I guess I need to check that - I don't have any long neck matches but can pick some up tomorrow. See, these are the questions I need to ask :)

Its a Weber Baby Q grill, if that helps!

I suspect that unless it's undergone a long period of disuse, that perhaps the spark/flint portion of the Q got wet. If you can get a flame source to where the gas normally comes into the Q, you should be able to still use the grill.

that helps - thank you! I'll check it out this weekend and report back.
