Well a drop of oil in the vent hole solved the problem!

Another local repair person - who specializes in clarinets and saxaphones ... suggested I let him do it. He saw me buying a vent remover tool and suggested I not do it on a new Oboe vent.

As per him -"water and oil do not mix".

Voila - no problem.

First he place a drop of oil and then blew some compessed air ..... it worked.

I called up my Oboe repair person - since I never heard of this intervention - and she told me she has done it - too.

Has anyone else heard of this?

Mark
