ok, I have the "jet burner" I assume since its the one with the one cap and one hole under a short pipe to direct/contain the flame.
so you say I just need to drill a new cap for nat gas use? that sounds easy enough to do but how do I figure out the drill bit size I need?
I can see where this step is easy to get wrong so is there a website place that tells me what size is best or at least a starting point?
