When I try to feed filament in manually by hand it can't make it into the hotend for some reason, I roughly measured the amount of filament that goes through before it gets stuck. I've tried putting inner diameter 3mm and 2mm tubing, it didnt seem to help.
I have anthead toolhead and dragon ace hotend.

what does the filament tip look like?
2mm ptfe is recommended. is it long enough to be flush against the printed part?
is your hotend fan running properly?

I cut the tip to be roughly 45 degrees, i tried experimenting with the angles to see if it'd help. I was only able to get it in once that was by hand spinning the filament. The same technique didnt work again.
Yes it sticks out a bit to go into the extruder. I've been testing by hand and still it won't always go into the hotend.
The hotend fan is running yah.

which extruder are you using?

orbiter v2.5, I think I found the problem, the tubing wasn't pushed all the way in, it was getting stuck on something. Thanks for the help!
