Also make sure the extruder motor fan is working.   If it is going through the nozzle easily, maybe it is getting too hot and bending between the gear and the opening to the hot end.


MK4 FTW.

I took the whole hotend assembly apart to clear a clog. I used acetone and the result was some nice and shiny parts that looked like they were brand new. Put everything together and everything seemed to work fine when extruding. Started a print withour a problem but suddenly it clogged and nothing came out at all.

I then simply unclogged it by pushing an allen wrench down where the filament goes and could push it trough without a problem. The it worked wor a few minutes and then clogged completely again.

I have done this a few more times. Easy to clear but cloggs again almost right away.

Have anyone had this problem and managed to solve it?
