I recently purchased a taz 6 and ran through my first prints using eSUN abs without a problem. On the 4th print I had an adhesion failure that I didn’t catch until the print was done. Since then I have been having issues with the way my taz prints for the first minute or so. No filament is extruded of about 10 seconds which I have accounted for by making 2 laps for the skirt. But The first bit of filament that extrudes always sticks to the nozzle causing it to be dragged around the print surface and then gets in the way of the print. The problem is magnified when I turn the flow rate down to 85%. ( I was trying this for a planetary gear that I can’t seem to get to print right). I have tried cold pulling with PLA but it just breaks off in the extruder and hasn’t helped anything. Can someone please help. Thank you in advance --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.lulzbot.com/t/filament-not-extruding-right-starting-print/4623)._
