Hi all, I was just playing an etude when the spring on my first valve snapped. The spring that snapped is the one that helps push the lever back up. Is this a repair I can do myself or should I take it to my local brass tech? Also, will I need to buy a spring specific to my horn? The horn that this spring broke on was a VMI Neptune 4098 (the rotary culbertson). I appreciate the responses of any repairmen on the list or people who have had the same problem. Thankyou.
