    I have more input in issues....after about 200 hours of printing in the last 2 weeks I now think I have a clog. I'm getting intermittent flow. I initially feed filament and it feeds through. But. While its extruding it stops but the stepper is still spinning. The hob gear is still spinning. Then it starts back extending for 20mm then pauses again. I cleaned the gear, oiled the bearing that presses on thefilament but still have the same issues. I amazoned another head so ill see if that is it

    @m4r1n5 is this PLA? Are you using an oiler or seasoning the extruder? Maybe fire up a new thread and we can help you out in detail. It sounds like partial PLA clogging.
