[TPIN] It's night of the living dead in there

[Scott Carson]

This is not a question for the queasy.

I've been using Alisyn valve oil and I've noticed that every time I  
oil my valves (once per week usually) the spit coming out of my third  
valve water key is bright yellow. This color gradually fades and  
after  two or three days everything is running clear again. Now,  
Alisyn itself is clear, and since I don't chew tobacco while playing  
(or at any other time, frankly) I'm assuming that it's interacting  
with something in the horn that's turning it yellow. All other  
discharges from my horn are clear all the time, so I'm guessing that  
whatever is in there lives somewhere in my third valve or the third  
valve slide. I've cleaned everything out pretty carefully, but this  
phenomenon continues with every oiling. Has anybody experienced  
anything like this? What should I do?

Thanks in advance
