I have played about 6 different sousaphones in different marching bands and the same thing always happened to me. I checked the spit valve and the valve itself. I had the tuba serviced and it still didn't do anything. So I went to my old jr. high band director who play tuba all through high school and college and asked him what he thought the problem was. He told me that this problem can be solved in one word, Buzzing, so I tried and not only did it help with my stuffy C but it also helped on all the other notes.
