I was working on a two part print in some Overture PETG. I didn't have enough left on role to do the second part so I got another one. The new role came in today and i tried to start printing. I took the old role out and put the new one in. I tried doing the filament in to make sure it was in all the way. It only extrudes filament when im pushing the filament into the printer though. I tried to run a print tower but it won't even print for more than 5 minutes at 250 degrees C. I went to the "filament in" and tried to extrudfe the filament with different presures for the bowden tube extruder. The only success I had was when I personally put pressure on the filament to help it through. I then swapped out the whole nozzle to make sure it wasn't because of a clog and have the same issue (the new nozzle i put in was brand new, just out of the package). Any idea of why it's not working now/what I can do to fix it?

Sounds like extruder tension or gummed up extruder gears not gripping.

Thank you! I took apart the extruder, cleaned every tooth of the gear and it's printing great now!
