I too oil my valves every time before I play. I never thought about inside the valves.

Thanks bloke for bringing this to my attention!

wow I only oil my valves on a regular basis, or until they start to feel sluggish at latest. 3-4 times a week maybe?

Ah-Ha - Finally, Proof positive that rotors are better!!
