Hi Tom, please post a picture of your smoker, so we can have alook at it and come up with some suggestions.

Just did a quick search for your smoker and I see it's a Gas BBQ.

Te only thing I can think of doing, is fit a needle valve in the gas line, so you can fine adjust the gas feed.

I will have to do some research on that as I'm not sure what it is or how to fit one, I appreciate you're help though, cheers

Have a look on eBay, search LPG Needle Valve, around £14.00
Fit it between the LPG Bottle and your smoker.
Leave the Smoker control valve fully open, and control on the needle valve.
The needle valve will,give you far better control and enable fine adjustment.
