I don't know much about these things as of yet, but make sure your filament diameter is good and that it's not extruding too much.  Also that your filament gear thing isn't stuffed full of plastic shavings.

Well  I made some verifications and the filament diameter was right in slicer.
I cleaned up the nozzle, I'm going to do some tests this afternoon.....
