 differences in adjustment of mechanism between the oboe and english horn

Other than the more obvious differences - what are some subtle differences in the resistance of keypads to look out for when adjusting an english horn as opposed to the oboe? I used Brian Seaton's oboe adjustment guide on my oboe recently and it seemed to have worked pretty well. The same is not true for an english horn that i am currently trying. Few years ago i posted on an issue of having difficulties slurring from middle C to half hole Eb. The Eb did not speak well. This time around the same is happening to even the closest intervals going into any half hole notes. Very frustrating. I don't think it is a reed or technique issue...any ideas?

Regards,
Howard
