    Leveling and temperature.
    You may be too hot and you are probably too high.

    Read the auto-leveling threads to get that straight and then consider experimenting to find the best temperature to use.
    ABS or PLA you can find good point by raising the extruder, then extruding 10mm with it at temp. It should NOT curl back to the hotend. If it does lower it a few degrees and try again. It should extrude and be fairly straight.
