Leaky slides-What to do?

I've been noticing that my fourth valve slide leaks water. I have a Kalison DS CC tuba. The weird thing is that it is leaking from the TOP slide around where the slide goes in the tube. I took it out and stuck only the leaky post back in and, sure enough, it wiggles around in there. I don't know all the technical words for these things, but you know what I mean. What can I do to keep it from leaking? Has anyone had this problem before?

Thanks,

Jason
