Flame can't be adjusted ,starts off mid level and
Turn the tank valve off and disconnect the grill hose from the tank. Wait five minutes and reconnect the hose to the tank. Turn the tank valve On VERY, VERY SLOWLY. Once the valve is completely open, light the burner farthest from the tank and turn the flame to high. Move to the next burner and repeat, until all the burners are lit. Are all the flame heights back to normal? If so, problem solved. If not, repeat the procedure again. If that doesn't solve the problem after the second attempt, it's time to replace the grill hose/regulator. You can purchase one at any home improvement center or hardware store that sells grills. Be sure to take your old one with you, to get the proper length and size.
Hope this helped solve your problem.

The best way to smoke meat using the brinkmann
It depends on the type of meat you want to smoke.
Some take longer than others. Example: Brisket verses a rack of Ribs.
There are many good books that get you started.
Hickory is a good wood to start with.

BOUGHT A BRINKMANN 2545 GRILL LAST NIGHT. WE HAVE
If you have a high pressure 2lb LP Gas System feeding your house, you will need and inline regulator for you grill.
If you have Natural Gas, the grill will have to be converted to Natural Gas. You can do this by changing burner orifices. You can purchase them from Brinkman. That is, if Brinkman approves the change to Natural Gas. Some gas grills aren't convertible.

What is the tempature verance of set tempature or
Sorry, but I am unclear of the question. I think it sounds as if you feel there is a temperature swing with the thermometer supplied with the grill. If I am incorrect, I apologize! I have never really trusted the supplied thermometers and I use a separate oven thermometer placed on the rack, I smoke Turkeys, fish, steaks and I find the only widely differing temperature is when the cover is removed too often. I have had the best results by planning the fire coals and soaked wood chips so that I can rely that the cover can remain undisturbed as long as possible. Sorry, If I am off-base. Good Luck.

Won't light even though I just replaced the
You may have turned the tank valve on too fast causing the excess flow valve to cutoff the flow of gas. Turn tank back off, disconnect, reconnect, and very slowly turn it back on. If you need more assistance, let us know.

The ignitor no longer works
The spring inside will rust and break after a couple of seasons. I've found the parts (ignitors and more) at the Home Depot, Lowes, etc.

I HAVE A CHARMGLOW PROPANE GRILL
Yes you can. It's best to use a long lighter, You light the burner from under the grill. Should be air slots on bottom, keep lid up and do not turn burner on until ready with lighter. Sounds like you need a new piezoelectric ignition or a wire problem.
Thanks for using fixya

How do I remove the back grill
To remove a back grill, first ensure the device is unplugged and completely powered down for safety. Most grills are secured by either Phillips head screws around the perimeter or plastic snap-fit clips that require gentle prying with a flathead screwdriver or a putty knife. If you are working on a fan, you typically need to remove the front cover and the blades first, then unscrew a large plastic locking nut holding the rear grill to the motor. Once all fasteners are removed, pull the grill straight toward you, being careful not to force it if you feel resistance, as there may be a hidden screw or a delicate sensor wire attached to the back.

Cal Flame Grill. The flame is not working?
Ran out of Propane? Safety mechanism on the regulator cutoff. Spider nest in the Venturi tubes?If a Cal Flame grill flame is not working, several issues could be the cause, including a clogged burner, a loose igniter, or a faulty regulator. First, ensure the gas valve is fully open and check for blockages in the burner and venturi tubes. Then, verify the igniter wires and electrodes are securely connected and clean. If the regulator is malfunctioning, it may need to be reset or replaced.There are videos here.

Where near Van Nuys, CA can I buy a propane gas line with regulator to replace the one on my Grand Hall barbecue grill model 7060
Amazon, or Home Depot. They are a standard unit that fits any grill. Why are you replacing it? They don't wear out. Sometimes they will lock out and need resetting.
