Thread: Tuba's Sticky 4th Valve

  1. Tuba's Sticky 4th Valve

    My school's tuba that I use, the 4th valve is sticky. I would just pull out the valve like everyone else, and oil it. But the valves aren't thte type that you can just pull out and oil, they are the rotary type of valves. I have never had oil one of the valves before, but the 4th one suddenly got sticky on my, and nothing sticky has been anywhere near the tuba.

    How do you oil it?/ How would you unstickify it?

    If you need any more info about the valves/ tuba, to help me, then just post it and I will get back to you with the info.

    thanks.

    sometimes the rotor caps, when tightened too much, will also make the valves stick...don't quite know why they would leave the factory like that...
