Hi Dean.
The noise from your 4th valve sounds like it might be from the valve spring being too long. When the spring compresses it turns into a solid piece of metal at the bottom of the valve and clanks pretty loudly. There arte several makes of horns that come through with the valve springs too long for the valve casins and we adjust these in the shop here before they go to be played or shipped.
I have 24 sets of the Boosey felts on order but they have not arrived yet. I understand that they run about $25.00 per set.

Let me know if I can help further.

Roger
