Actually, if you get a rawhide hammer, and tap it ever-so-gently around =
the stuck valve, it sets up vibrations that often times will release the =
valve. Same with a stuck MP...gently, gently, on the lead pipe, and keep =
pulling on the MP!! I learned this from two very fine repairmen...

         Give it a good solid whack with a hammer.  Usually takes care =

    Jim,

    I know you were being cute, but do you know how much a good old 4 =
rotor tuba may be
    worth? Try $2000 to $10,000 US depending on the maker.=20



     I was just kidding, of course.
