What problems do you see?
- not smooth inside the leadpipe?
- 'spots' on the outside of the leadpipe?
- holes through the leadpipe?
- flexible feel on the outside of the leadpipe?

KNOW (see) what the next note is BEFORE you have to play it.
PLAY the next note 'on time' and 'in rhythm'.
Oh ya, watch the conductor - they set what is 'on time'.

The Yamaha yellow brass leadpipes and tuning crooks are subject to dezincification, (red rot) and with some people's chemistry it can happen quickly. Regular cleaning and valve oil down the leadpipe every day will slow the process.
