Hi Jim

Yes you are right, I like mine to just have just a slight play so the arm between the d# and the b can move very slightly with out moving any pads.

I had the same problem and I fixed it with your option 1. I did remove the b/b flat rod, the removed the d# pad arm then got out small needle nose plies and bent only the last section of the spring ever so slightly.

Put it back together and has worked perfectly for the last 2 or so years.

I was getting in consistent low notes be for this adjustment.

Good luck with it.

Nicholas
