oboe problem: top line F breaks down an octave

Author: Jim22

I am playing a Yamaha 441 oboe, and the top line F is breaking down an octave unless I really blow hard to force it. I know the first octave pad is sticking a little, but this happens even once it opens. What might cause this? Any particular leaky pads or adjustments to check forto check for? The joint seems to hold a vacuum, but not really great. Thanks.
