Thanks for the advice but I need to find a synthetic oil for this application. Isn't mineral oil a petroleum based substance? If so, it would conflict with the synthetic valve oil and slide grease I'm using on these two horns. I've tried just using the valve oil on the top bearing but it still rattles a little. So I'm looking for a synthetic oil that is a bit more viscous than the valve oil. Hopefully, the Hetman Heavy Key Oil I've ordered will do the trick...
