[QUOTE="PigSquealer, post: 628661, member: 8047"] Back them both out. Leak light in the body. Then close F or E and press pinky G#. Turn the screw over G# cup back in until G# is just gently closing. Press F or E again and hit G# on & off. See if G# leaks. Next press F or E. Look at upper stack Bb cup. Adjust the screw over Bis finger until it gently closes upper stack Bb cup. The adjustments are very fine as to how much you turn the screws. Like 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn is a big difference depending on the maker of the sax.
