Genesis JetBoil heat dial fix?
What's up mags. Last year one of the plastic dials came off/snapped off the outer burner on my JetBoil genesis base camp thingy and now only runs at full gas. Other burner can barely run at all beyond a simmer.
I haven't been able to get any pliers to turn the pin (circled) that would normally be turned by the plastic dial (intact one is higher in the pic). JB says I can only send it in for inspection.
Is there any hacks to get this pin to rotate so I can modulate the flame, or some kind of Coleman replacement part I could put on there?
Thanks

Dumb question but, have you already tried to get Jetboil warranty help?
**Edit** - that was a dumb question. My only thought would be gluing a paperclip to the knob to make it hand-turnable. Good luck man.

Can you grind a slot in the end or grind a couple sides flat for more purchase? Or will the whole assembly come out so you can close it from the inside and use the other burner?
