Dome Issue

Every time I lift my dome up, it falls back down just an inch or two but it is enough to make getting the grill rack out difficult. What is the problem and how do I fix it? Why won't my dome stay up all the way?

The only two issues I’ve ever really seen are having the egg out of level or loose bolts right where the spring connects to the hinge. The double nut connection tends to get loose over time and causes the hinge to not operate properly. The level does not appear to be the issue based upon your description. It usually results in the lid closing voluntarily. I would suspect the loose hinge bolt, but not sure without seeing it. Good luck.
