How do I clean the jets on my gas grill?

Question

The line of jets (for lack of correct name) in the back work just fine but the ones in the front don't flame as much, as if they aren't getting as much gas. It's a Webber gas grill.

It's always best to follow the manufacturer's instructions, which you can often get online. But if you can't find them, try this. Make sure the unit is off and all partshave cooled off. You can use a stainles steel wire brush or a pipe cleaner to clean the burner ports. Don't overdo it--you don't want to enlarge any openings.

After we grill, we run it on high for about 5 minutes  to clean the grilling surface, but this also burns off grease that may have gotten into the burner ports. (Main problem is remembering to turn the darn grill off!).  Here's a general guide to grill maintenance.
