 Air leak -
Author: steve1221

I seem to have a leak in the lower joint when I blow out - I can see one of the lower keys the 3rd one from the bottom that is supposed to be closed rise up and go back down. It has a felt / skin pad but it did this with a cork pad. The spring looks like a heave one and is fairly new. I tried bending the spring but still the same results - it seems that the air that I am forcing from the bottom with my mouth is too much. When I press on that key - I get basically an air tight seal. Anybody seen this ?
