When you say you don't have a promlem when you play someone elses clarinet didyou play it on your mouthpiece with your reeds? First, make sure the tiny screw on the throat A-G# key is not keeping the G# very slightly opened, that will make your clarinet go crazy. if you're positive it's not leaking anyplace in the upper joint than check the suction on your reeds but holding your hand over the opened joint of the mouthpiece and "suck" the air out to see if the reeds are sealing buy closing off and popping open. if they aren't they're leaking causing the problem. The question than is it the reeds or the mouthpiece. Try it with another mouthpiece to determine. If the reeds are sealing do the same with the top joint of your clarinet with the MP on, cover all the keys and block off the bottom, if your reeds were sealing with the MP alone they should also seal on the top joint if there's no small leak.
